Guanyin Temple is located at the western foot of Donglu Mountain in Lishui. It was first built in the Yuan Dynasty. In 1999, it was rebuilt and renamed as Donglu Mountain Guanyin Chan Temple, covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters. The original name of Guanyin Chan Temple was ‘Guanyin Nunnery at the western foot of Donglu Mountain’. It was built in the Yuan Dynasty and has a history of more than 700 years. It was destroyed in the war during the Xianfeng period. It was rebuilt in 1882 (the eighth year of Guangxu) and then destroyed again. After 1999, it was rebuilt. In 2000, Donglu Mountain Guanyin Temple became a subordinate temple of Jiming Temple. It was approved by the provincial and Nanjing municipal governments as a key construction temple. Buildings such as the Heavenly King Hall, Yuantong Treasure Hall, Drum Tower, Bell Tower, dining hall, and dormitory were built. In December 2010, the newly-built Yuantong Treasure Hall was completed and a ceremony for consecrating Buddha statues was held.
