This is the home of Jigong, and it is said that prayer is very effective. Every day pilgrims come to worship Buddha and pray.

The Buddhist relics collected in the temple include the Eight Leaves Sutra in ancient times, the gilded Buddha statue in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, the Diamond Sutra written by Dong Qichang in the Ming Dynasty, and the collection of carved dragons in Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty. Lingyin Temple is also a temple where Taoist monks become monks. A statue of Buddha, a broken fan in the right hand, a rosary in the left hand and a right foot resting on the altar, is the statue of Jigong.

Although Feilai Peak is not high, there are many strange caves and caves on the mountain, and there are more than 340 Buddhist grottoes statues since the Five Dynasties.
