The newly-built main hall and great compassion hall are resplendent, while the newly-built East Garden and pool corridor are attractive.

In the early Qing Dynasty, Yulin Tong Wang Xiu, who was respected by Emperor Shunzhi as the "great master of Puji and Nengren", came to visit Yushan Mountain and enjoyed the victory of water. She was invited to be the host and changed her name to zanghai Buddhist temple. After the renovation, the temple is radiant and the zongfengpi is vigorous. The Miao family, the mother of Yulin, is also a monk, known as Da CI old man. In 1659, the 16th year of Shunzhi reign of the Qing Dynasty, Yulin was granted the imperial edict to return the mountain, gave the gold to bury his mother, and built the Da CI pagoda. After the pagoda was built in the Da Bei Hall of the temple, Jin Zhijun, the Minister of the Ministry of officials, wrote the inscription for it, saying: "the tomb of the Da CI old man in the gratitude thatched cottage". Later, Weng Tonghe had another couplet: "wild crane, solitary cloud, Daci pagoda; youhuang arbor, ancient Dongan.".
