Introducing Jinzhu Village

Jinzhu Mountain Village is a renowned tourist destination in Jingdezhen, also known as the Jinzhu Mountain Scenic Area. It boasts numerous attractions, including Jinshan Temple, Tiger Pond, Fairy Bathing Pool, and Guanyin Washing Silk, all of which evoke legends of divine beauty. This uniquely gifted tourism environment has attracted a large number of visitors.

Jinshan Temple is a small temple within the village. The original temple has been destroyed, and the current building has been rebuilt to its original appearance. Despite its small size, the saying "Mountains are not as high as immortals, but they are magical," and "small temples are sacred," is also true. The constant incense offerings at Jinshan Temple attest to the Bodhisattva's efficacy. Legend has it that long ago, Master Fahai traveled to Xiaoyuan. From the village's mountainous "dragon vein" and its orientation, it seemed to be a prime feng shui location. However, the village was sparsely populated and lacked prosperity. Upon observation, he discovered that the dragon vein was harbouring two blue and white snake immortals, causing disturbances. Following his guidance, the villagers spontaneously built this temple opposite. The temple originally housed 300 large Buddha statues and over 40 monks.
