History

This temple embodies the mighty power of the great waterfall on Dragon-Flight Mountain. Since ancient times, ascetics have trained here under the cascade, tempering body and spirit. Even I am drawn to the waterfall's purity and strength. Through postal offerings, this temple has long received the prayers of distant pilgrims.
