The expanded Jintai Temple has more than 3,000 square meters and three halls. The middle seat is the Hall of the Great Hero, the east wing is dedicated to the statues of the three ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the back seat is the Kuixing Pavilion on the second floor. The mountain gate is engraved: "The golden body is always there, and the mirror is always bright." It was written by Huang Huaisen, the local governor of Guangxi in the Qing Dynasty. The surrounding environment is beautiful, the mountains and rivers are sandwiched, the waterfall is 100 feet, and the Longtan is clear and mellow. Every Buddha's birthday, custom festivals, tourists like clouds up the mountain, pilgrims like tide temple. Over the past hundred years, the abbot has changed hands several times, among which Master Yin Zhi from Dongguan entered the mountain on 1933, which lasted for more than ten years. He is quite accomplished in Buddhism and literature, and often talks about Zen and Taoism with Master Yifeng, the abbot of Xiangquan Temple in Ganwu. His poem "Jintai Temple" said: "There have been drums on the golden platform for a long time, and every time you go to the DPRK, you will gather red smoke. A piece of brocade is separated from the polluted land, and Chihiro is refined in white and wet. It's rainy and foggy in the morning, and the desert hangs on the clouds. Who will win in this situation? You know, there is an escape Zen in Tongli. " Since then, Jintai Temple has been burned by soldiers repeatedly, becoming increasingly scarce. In the third year of the Great Leap Forward, the main building was demolished, and after the construction of Jintai Reservoir, broken walls appeared.
After the reform and opening up, everything has flourished, and the people's government has protected legitimate religious places. In the early 1990s, the restoration project in Jintai Temple started. Because the old site was flooded and the traffic was inconvenient, the new site was chosen at the south foot of Huangyang Mountain. This place has beautiful scenery, overlooking the Haikou of Yamen in front and the main peak of Antelope in the back. Qinglong Mountain stretches on the left and Baihu Mountain rides on the right; There is clear water ahead, and the high rock on the other side of the mountain is suddenly named "Dengxian Stone", which is where the cowboy king ascended to heaven in Doumen folklore.
Hong Kong's good friends Huang Yongfa and Yang Lianjiao love Huang Yang landscape and donate money to rebuild Jintai Temple. After doing business, they went to Jiuhua to Putuo. We sincerely invite famous temple masters to the south to preside over reconstruction and management. The local American clothes also helped. After several years of construction, Xinjintai Temple has begun to take shape. Drive along Huangyang Avenue and turn into the reservoir to reach the mountain gate, and climb more than 300 stone steps before you see the main hall. The statue of Bodhisattva in the hall is magnificent and the comprehensive room is antique. According to the plan, the Sutra Building, the Bell and Drum Tower, the Heavenly King Hall, the wing, the living room, the warehouse and the Gongde Hall will be unveiled one by one in this geomantic treasure house. When the 3-ton bronze bell cast in Suzhou rang, Jintai Temple played a new movement.
