Introduction to the stele gallery: There is a stone carving of Guanyin in the stele gallery in the courtyard. If you look closely, you will find that this statue is a male Guanyin. In the Buddhist scriptures, Sakyamuni called Guanyin a "good man", so before the Song Dynasty, the statues of Guanyin were all male. The stele gallery also contains the "Inscription on the Reconstruction of the Guandi Temple in Youying, Xincheng", "The Inscription on the Reconstruction of the Guandi Temple and Contribution to the Temple Fields", and "The Epitaph of Xianfu Bin" written by Wu Chengen, etc.
