Introduction to Fangsheng Temple: Wulongtan is the largest freeing pool established by Duke Yanlu of Tang Dynasty. Later generations built the Fangsheng Nunnery beside the pond to commemorate Duke Lu. The current Fangsheng nunnery was rebuilt in August 1989. The white marble strip with three characters "Fangsheng nunnery" is a precious relic of the original Fangsheng nunnery. In the middle of the nunnery, there is a portrait of Lu Gong carved on the stone, which is based on the portrait made by Lu Gong's descendants. On both sides is a couplet written by Shao Shuwen, a Lu native, "Linjiang brings Guo Li to open the Qingze River, and the formation table releases virtue and is surrounded by group scales". Although this nunnery is small in area, it embodies the memory of Lu Gong by future generations.
