Introduction to Xilin Temple: Xilin Temple and Donglin Temple are only a hundred feet apart. They were founded in 377 AD by Master Huiyong, the founder of the temple. Xilin Temple is small, compact, beautiful and rigorous. Su Shi, the great poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, once wrote a poem titled "Inscribed on the Wall of the West Forest", which goes like this: "Looking at it from the side, there are ridges and peaks, with different heights near and far. I don't know the true face of Mount Lu, but I only know that I am in this mountain." This poem has been passed down through the ages, and also made Xilin Temple famous. Spread far and wide.
