Introduction to Yinglong Bridge: On the Hu River in front of the temple, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the monk Yuan Gui saw that pedestrians were blocked when the floods rose, so he built a bridge over the creek, which was later rebuilt. In the seventh year of Emperor Daoguang's reign in the Qing Dynasty, the monks who were virtuous and noble traveled far and wide, sang thousands of miles, sang alms, and then built again. The bridge is twenty meters long and more than two meters wide, with two dragons holding their heads high and two columns for fishermen, woodcutter and plowmen. The carvings are exquisite, beautiful and elegant.
