Yangtiling is located at the junction of Shenzhen Shantou Special Cooperation Zone and Haifeng County, Shanwei City, Guangdong Province. Yangtiling peak shape is similar to the carambola petals, known as "carambola ridge" before the Ming Dynasty. Because of its steep peak and dangerous road, it also looks like a sheep's hoof, so it is also called "Yangti mountain" in Qing Dynasty. It was an important official road between Huizhou and Guangzhou in ancient eastern Guangdong. According to the stele of rebuilding Temple of yangdiling temple, "the precipitousness of Fuling mountain is more than ten li, and the middle Zhi and side Xie make people dizzy and feet shrink. If it's cold, the sea breeze will blow and the hat will fly; if it's hot, the sweat will fall and the stone will be wet. " There are also records of "detour and crossing precipitous, looking at the extreme clouds" and "all the mountains are looked around, and the precipitous peaks are overlapped".

The yangtiling pass was originally built in the Song Dynasty. It was blocked by wars during the Three Kingdoms period. From the Jin Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, there were "heroes in the green forest" who built their nests on this pass. As a result, the ancient pass was blocked at different times. During the reign of Jingtai in the Ming Dynasty, the government built a post road, built an nunnery on the top of the mountain, and built a small pavilion beside it. During the reign of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Chen Rufeng, the magistrate of Haifeng County, rebuilt it. In the winter of 1670, the ninth year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, Xu Yangren, the vassal of liangxiantai, traveled to Chaozhou capital. He sympathized with the hardships of service, donated money to repair the pavilion, and told the magistrate of Haifeng County, Prime Minister fan Fengchun, to complete the task.

The above-mentioned things are recorded in the stele of rebuilding yangtiling temple. It is also recorded that "three couplets were built in Zhongjian temple for Guanyin, and a pavilion was built in front of it for monks to serve tea. Beside the structure of the temple, worship Guan master, set garrison Ding several people, to guard otherwise. We should plant trees at Deng level to relieve our breath. " It is also recorded that "today, those who are in danger will bear it, those who work will rest, those who are thirsty will moisten it, and those who are awe inspiring will warm it. Salty to climb high, open its eyes. If not, the way to manage the danger in Zhouguan is very good. It's not just about horses, it's about business travel.

The length and width of the inscription are 1.55m and 0.99M respectively. The inscription was written by fan Fengchun and erected at the original site of yangtiling nunnery in 1671. In 1737, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, e Da Ren, visited Haifeng and pointed out that Yangti mountain was "both steep mountains and high peaks. It was also the channel of Huichao. It was located in a dangerous pass. It set up a fortress, set up a signal defense, moved an nunnery to other places, and set up a dangerous place for the people.". In 1740, Li Guanghua, the magistrate of Haifeng County, chose a place to move the nunnery and built Guancheng at the site of Lingding nunnery.

The nunnery was moved to the west of the mountain, five li away from the old site. In the inscription of moving and building yangtiling nunnery, it is recorded that the rebuilt nunnery Road: "the mountain embraces the water, the quiet and high knot, the quiet and empty cola, how can Xizhu and Nanhua win?" It was also recorded that "there are still small pavilions on the hillside, and tea and soup are set up so that pedestrians can have less rest and drink cool and thirsty.". When you see the dusk drum and the morning bell, you can see the road in a hundred thousand clouds; when you see the blue light and the bright moon, you can see three thousand worlds without dust. After that, Li Leye will prosper, wangbaosha will be majestic and qingguanshan will be consolidated. " The inscriptions are 1.27 meters long and 0.58 meters wide. They were erected in front of yangtiling rebuilt nunnery in 1741. At that time, there were garrisons, and five passes were built before and after the company.
