A poem

Yangsi: Mao Yuangong in Qing Dynasty

The Pearl palace embraces the river village and goes up to the fragrant platform to drink wine bottles.

Bishu two peaks open stone mirror, Chenghu ten thousand hectares to the mountain gate.

Curtain flowers rain deep spring, cloth golden light night faint.

Do not road old song and dance, spare grass memories of Wang sun.

Until the Song Dynasty, yangqishan was still "close to the ancient thousand rooms, vacating a hundred Zhanglou". There are 18 halls in Yangqi temple, which are composed of main hall, back hall, Scripture room and pagoda. Entering the main hall, you can see the Buddha statues, the eighteen Arhats and the twenty-four heavenly statues. There are two Tang steles on both sides of the temple, both of which are the original inscriptions on the pagoda.
