What travelers say:

Maoyue Temple Courtyard: The pure land garden of Maoyue Temple is a garden integrating the Buddha Hall and the garden pool. The water in Daquanchi is rippling, surrounded by sandbars, coastal-style water split stones, standing stones equivalent to wave-proof walls, rockery groups such as dead landscapes, and water into the canals in the pool. The garden of Maoyue Temple inherits the thought and technique of Japan's oldest gardening book "Making a Court" to date, which is a rare and precious garden. After more than 800 years, it still shines with the surrounding tree landscape and has no less charm.
