History of scenic spots

Yinshan talin is the tombstone of the eminent monks of fahua temple, a famous temple in the Liao and Jin Dynasties. According to textual research, the northeast of Tianshou mountain in Changping District of Beijing and the south foot of Yinshan Mountain in the southwest of Haizi village were the places where temples gathered in the Liao and Jin Dynasties. At that time, there were 72 large and small temples and nunneries, among which fahua temple was the largest.

Fahua temple was founded in 1125, the third year of jintianhui. After the monks died, they were buried in the cemetery beside the temple and built tombs. With the passage of time, more and more eminent monks were buried here, and the tombs built at that time had formed a tower forest. Due to its long history, there are only seven tombs left, including five in the Jin Dynasty and two in the Yuan Dynasty. The five pagodas built in the Jin Dynasty are of the same shape. They are all brick pagodas with dense eaves, 20-30 meters high, tall and straight in shape. The detail of the pagoda body is exquisitely carved, much like a Buddhist pagoda. The second tower of Yuan Dynasty is relatively small, one is the close eaves tower, and the other is the combination of close eaves Pavilion and covered bowl.
