Behind it is the Pen Rack Mountain as its support, and in front is the Nine-Dragon Ridge, which is known for the honor of 'Nine Dragons Pilgrimage'. 🟡 Grand Auditorium Next to Dafosi Temple, it was built in the 1960s and 1970s. It has an arch-shaped architectural style, and the facade is curved. 🟡 The ancient pine tree in front of the temple is over 400 years old and still lush, covering the sky. 🟡 The stone inscription 'Record of the Reconstruction of Taishan Palace' dates back to the seventh year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. It was a joint effort by the government office and villagers to rebuild, with inscriptions on both sides, and the overall preservation of the stele is good. The inscription roughly describes the importance of the Niangniang Temple in Zhenbiancheng Village, the disasters suffered at that time, and the grand occasion of the reconstruction effort by all parties. 🟡 The stone inscription 'Record of the Reconstruction and New Construction of the Guandi Temple Archway' dates back to the sixteenth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, with inscriptions on both sides.
