The Lushan Temple, also known as Luyuan or Huiguang Temple, built by the monk master Fachong of Zan religion during the Jin dynasty, has a long history of more than 1700 years. Originally, it had a main hall and a rear hall. Now, only the rear hall remains. It is roofed with yellowish tiles and supported by red columns. In the second year of Renshou during the reign of Emperor wendi of the Sui dynasty (602), he gave an imperial edict that a pagoda for Buddhist relics be built. During the 18th year of Kaiyuan of the reign of Tang Emperor Xuanzong, the well-known writer and calligrapher Li Yong wrote "Lushan Temple" for the tablet, known a tablet of top skills in three aspects." The arch gate of the temple is built in the local style of architecture and upon it there is a sign bearing the legend "Ancient Lushan Temple."
