Introduction to Yaoshen Pavilion: "Yaoshe Pavilion" is the first group of buildings on the north-south axis of the Dai Temple complex, and is actually the entrance to Dai Temple. Yaoshen Pavilion is the vestibule of Dai Temple, formerly known as Caoshen Gate and Caoshen Pavilion. Whenever the ancients had business on Mount Tai, they would first pay a brief visit here and then enter the temple to worship the gods. The pavilion is the second entrance to the courtyard. In the main hall in the front yard, Bixia Yuanjun was worshiped during the Ming and Qing Dynasties; on both sides are the east and west auxiliary halls; in the courtyard is the "Prohibition of Sacrifice Monument" erected by Zhang Qifeng, the governor of Tai'an Prefecture, in the 59th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1720).
