Dousi Temple, perched atop Lion Ridge, is a renowned Buddhist sanctuary. Established during the Shunzhi reign of the Qing Dynasty, the temple underwent a revival effort in 1982 under the leadership of the eminent Buddhist master, Yuan Lin.


Master Yuan Lin, who styled himself as a mountain monk, is celebrated for his calligraphy and paintings, which are considered treasures and collected by many renowned monasteries. His murals within Dousi Temple, resembling scrolls hanging on the walls, are truly lifelike and exquisite.
