Introduction to the Main Hall: A Ming Dynasty wooden gilded statue of Wei Tuo Bodhisattva is enshrined in Zhulin Temple. Japanese army translator Nakajima Yoshiichi once brought the Buddha statue back to Japan to enshrine it in order to prevent it from being destroyed. In 1973, before his death, he asked his daughter to return the Buddha statue. In order to recreate the history of the statue of Wei Tuo Bodhisattva being enshrined in Zhulin Temple, in order to strengthen the people-to-people exchanges of Sino-Japanese Buddhism and promote the friendly cooperative relations between China and Japan, the temple was later rebuilt.
