Near the gate is a large seven-meter-high flower basket with different colors and exquisite ideas, surrounded by four elephants, all of which are made of grass shops, full of the atmosphere of nature and attractive artistic charm.

The first one to arrive is Cihang Pudu Garden. It uses sculptures and garden architecture to express the theme of Buddhist culture.

Then he followed the tour guide on a yellow line painted with paint, known as the dragon vein.

There are carved dragons on the dragon wall made of foam in front of the inkstone, and several eyes are set up for viewers to cast with dragon coins. The person who threw the dragon coins followed the tour guide to a small path surrounded by the fence, saying that it was the Bodhi Road.

A group of people had to fold their hands together and follow the tour guide. Those who didn't spend money to throw away the dragon coins walked along the road next to the exit.

Yunluo and An Chu met An Qingji and walked through Changshou Gallery. The tour guide arranged free activities. Several people walked along the road together and visited Nanshan Temple, the center of the Cultural Garden.

It is surrounded by mountains and seas, with a high view, and a magnificent atmosphere. Whether it is the appearance of buildings, interior decoration, furniture and Buddha statues, they are carefully designed according to the Tang Dynasty style, showing a prosperous Tang Dynasty scene.

The Renwang Gate is the first gate of Nanshan Temple. There is a golden three-character plaque hanging high on the mast of the door. It was written by the late former president of the National Buddhist Association, Mr. Zhao Puchu. The Renwang Gate is commonly known as the mountain gate. The palace enshrines two guardians on both sides of the left and right Vajras, tall and majestic, with anger and awe-inspiring look on their faces. Their mission is to defend the temple.

Go out of the back door of the King's Hall and walk to the left. Facing the sea is the majestic main temple of Nanshan Temple. The front hall is named after the inner courtyard of Tushita, because the temple enshrined Maitreya Buddha. The Buddhist scriptures say that Maitreya Buddha is the future Buddha, and he lives in the inner courtyard of Tushita Heavenly Palace to preach. The Maitreya Buddha worshipped here is a heavenly crown, Maitreya, wearing a Bodhisattva dress, wearing a heavenly crown, and his right foot is raised. His body is well-proportioned, and his Dharma appearance is beautiful.

Walking out of the back door of the inner courtyard of Tushita, you will be on the steps up the main hall of Jintang. Jintang is the name of the Tang Dynasty, and later generations generally call it the Great Hall. The temple worships the Three Ages Buddhas, the leader of the mother-in-law world of Yunluo and Anjia sisters, Shakyamuni Buddha, the leader of the mother-in-law world, on the right is Amitabha Buddha, the leader of the Western Paradise, and on the left is the leader of the Eastern Glazed World.

On the front of the left is Venerable Kashyapa, and on the front of the right is Venerable Ananda. Both Kashyapa and Ananda were great disciples of Sakyamuni and had made outstanding contributions to the formation of Buddhist scriptures.

The sixteen Arhats are worshipped on both sides of the main hall. The Buddhist scriptures say that the sixteen Arhats are not eighteen. To say eighteen, it was because later generations added two. The reason why the Nanshan Buddhist Culture Garden and its center, Nanshan Temple, is named Nanshan, is one because it is named according to the place, and the other is to commemorate the monk Jianzhen. The monk Jianzhen belongs to the Vinaya School, also known as Nanshan School, and is coincidentally named as the same place name.

According to historical records, during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, the monk Jianzhen, a magnificent monk, took a boat to Japan. Due to the storm, he failed to travel many times. For the fifth time, he encountered a typhoon nearby and drifted to the sea for more than ten days. He came to the estuary near Sanshui to land. He ordered the people to offer a log within three days, and soon built a Buddhist temple, lecture hall, brick pagoda and a statue of Sakyamuni Buddha that was 16 feet high.

Monk Jianzhen stayed here for a year and a half, preaching Dharma and preaching. He and his disciples regrouped. After returning to Yangzhou, they finally succeeded in their sixth trip to Japan. They built an altar at the Toda Temple in Nara, and became the first ancestor of the Japanese Vinaya School, making great contributions to Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges.

At the same time, the famous Japanese monk Kūkai sent a monk from Tang to study in China. When he encountered a typhoon on the sea, he also drifted to Nanshan. After resting, he arrived in Chang'an through Quanzhou. Therefore, Buddhism has always regarded Nanshan as a place of blessing.

In Nanshan Temple, there is also a grand and imitative Tang style Thirty-Three Guanyin Hall. The Guanyin Hall gathers all the believers in the world and has been built over two years. It has the largest and most exquisite indoor Guanyin statue in the world. It is an amazing Buddhist event.

The Thirty-Three Guanyin statues are 50 meters long and weigh 15 tons. They are currently the largest and most exquisite indoor Guanyin group statues in the world. They have been recorded in the Great World Guinis record.

The group images all use the most advanced lacquer materials and the most advanced gold-plated plastering craftsmanship. These Guanyin shapes are vivid, the carvings are exquisite, and lifelike. There is a folk saying that Guanyin has thirty-three incarnations. The Thirty-Three Guanyin does not manifest various images, but Guanyin itself has different shapes, but only different postures, scenes and magic tools.

Ancient painters carefully painted thirty-three types of Guanyin portraits such as Guanyin, Guanyin riding dragon, Guanyin holding scriptures, etc. Based on the myths circulated among the folk, plus artistic imagination and exaggeration, the ancient painters carefully drew thirty-three Guanyin portraits, including Guanyin, including Guanyin, including Guanyin, including Guanyin, the Buddha's light shining, and the auspicious southern mountain.
