What travelers say:

The Feilai Peak is facing the hillside of Lingyin Temple. It is full of Buddhist grotto statues from five generations. It is as many as 30040. It is a rare ancient grotto art treasure in Jiangnan, which is comparable to the stone carvings of Dazu in Chongqing. Su Dongpo once had the verse of "the stream and the mountains are everywhere, and the favorite Lingyin fly to the peak". Jiangnan Jingshi has a philosophical poem "Feilai Peak": "Visitors stop at the mountain, long as a stone tastes mysterious. Notice that things change with reason, so that they don't fly." ("Zaijingtangji" [Self Note] when: facing, looking at) The stone carvings have three Western holy statues (five generations), Lushena Buddha Society relief (Northern Song), cloth bag monk (Southern Song), King Kong hand bodhisattva, Do-Wen Heavenly King, male Xiang Guanyin (all Yuan Dynasty), are rare artistic treasures. Especially striking, count the smiling, bare-chested Maitreya Buddha, which is the largest statue in the Feilaifeng Grottoes, for the representative works of the Song Dynasty statue art. The east of Feilaifeng, there are the ancient temples of the Sui Dynasty, the temple of the Tianzhu Temple (Fajing Temple), which travels southwest along the stream, and the temple of the Zhongtian Temple (Fajing Temple) built in the next two years and the temple of the Shangtian Temple (Faxi Temple) built in the fifth generation of Wuyue, collectively known as the "three days". One day, the Jigong monk of Lingyin Temple suddenly came on a whim, knowing that there was a mountain to fly from a distance, then, Lingyin Temple in front of a village, Jigong afraid of flying the peaks crushing people, rushed into the village to persuade everyone to leave quickly. The village people were used to seeing Jigong crazy and crazy, and they liked to play tricks. They thought that this time they were looking for everyone's happiness, so no one listened to him. When they saw that the peaks were coming, Jigong was in a hurry, and rushed into a house to marry a bride.
