The Tang Yin Memorial Temple was originally known as the Tang Jieyuan Memorial Temple. In 1582 (the tenth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty), monk Xiaoxu built several rows of meditation rooms here. In 1626 (the sixth year of Tianqi), Yang Daying created a refined residence here and enshrined the Cundi Buddha statue, named Cundi Nunnery. After several expansions, the current main hall is lofty and spacious. In the front is the crane-leg corridor, and in the rear is the awning corridor. Almost everywhere on the wooden structure of the beams and purlins in the front corridor is decorated with carvings. The carving work is very exquisite and has the style of the Zhe School. Opening hours: Open from 08:30 to 17:00 all year round.
