Dongling spring
In the courtyard of Haiyun hall on the west side of the main hall, there is a well called Dongling spring. According to legend, it is the place where jiaoguang takes water for alchemy, also known as alchemy well. In fact, this is not a spring, but a well dug by monk Jiaoshan in imitation of Zhongling spring in Jinshan. Because Jiaoshan is in the east of Jinshan, it is called "Dongling spring".
In the past, monks from Jinshan and Jiaoshan often competed with each other and imitated each other. There was a jade belt from Su Dongpo in Jinshan Temple, and a jade belt from Yang Yiqing in Jiaoshan temple. There was a river sucking Pavilion in Jiaoshan, and Jinshan also imitated a sea swallowing Pavilion. The excavation of Dongling spring is the result of their competition.
