What travelers say:

Baima Temple is located on the mountain of Baima Temple. Baima Temple Mountain is also known as Sima Mountain. It is said that Wei Sima Feng Changping Hou has climbed the mountain and was named. The temple was renamed Baima Temple Mountain because of the temple. The total area is about 10 square kilometers, and the main peak is 1010 meters above sea level. The mountains are densely forested, bushy, birds and flowers, and the air is fresh. The mountain is overlooked and the Jincheng District is unobstructed, which is pleasing to the eye. It is said that Tang Seng went to the West Tian to get the scriptures. On the way back, the scriptures fell into the water. Tang Seng once built a temple in this mountain to dry the scriptures. The beautiful legend of "white horse" and "white horse drag". White horse drag: There is a kind of pebble on the mountain of Zhema Temple, the outer core is hollow, the rocking sound, known as maring stone. According to legend, there was a young man in ancient times, witty and kind. He went up the mountain to fight firewood for the rich every day, and the wind and rain were unimpeded. Nevertheless, he was often beaten by the rich man because of the lack of firewood. One day, he returned from the firewood, and he met an old man who asked him for firewood to keep warm. He saw the old man frozen, regardless of the danger of being beaten by firewood, and he was very sad to give firewood to the old man. The old man took a paper horse from his arms and sent it to the teenager. He told him that this was a god horse. It was a small white dragon that Tang monks had ridden when they took the scriptures. If they asked, they only had to find the millennia valley grass to eat it, and they could show their spirit immediately. After the teenager went home, the sudden wind was strong and the snowstorm was all night. The next day, the rich man forced the teenager into the mountain to fight firewood despite the snow. The teenager remembered the paper horse hidden in his arms, but the millennia valley grass went to ah? Suddenly, he thought that there was a thousand-year-old Buddha statue in the white horse temple on the mountain destroyed. He clearly remembered that the skeleton of the Buddha was made of valley grass. . So he immediately came to the monastery and took a grain grass from the Buddha statue. The paper horse in his arms opened his mouth and swallowed it, shook his head and waved his tail, and suddenly became a snow-white Hummer, and went into the mountain to return to the youth. After the rich man learned, he wanted to occupy the god horse as he had. So the same family Ding conspired to steal the horse in the middle of the night, and was kicked over by the white horse. The teenager woke up from his sleep, jumped on the horse, and the white horse vacated. The horse was ripped off by the rich man, and scattered the ground. It became a rocking horse stone. A mountain beam dragged by the white horse reins has not lived. This is the history of the horse bell stone and the story of one of the four famous places in Jincheng, "Baima drag". The mountain on the south side of the square is the only ancient building of Baima Temple, "Jinggong Tower". It is said that Qing Kangxi for three years, Jiachen March, there is a famous Jing Wenkui. The White Horse Temple tower, which was destroyed earlier, was restored with platinum, and was more in the front, so it was called "Jinggong Tower". It is confirmed from the Jinggong Tower Stele that the original tower is a Ming Dynasty building. The Dapilu Temple covers an area of 1134 square meters. It is the largest temple of Baima Temple. The temple is seven-fold suspended, and the main five-sided Buddha, five hundred Luohan, 88 Buddha, 84 major sad curse statues, Luo Han column, five octagonal pavilion columns, 12 round senses, 24 heavens, Sakya itself, 53 ginseng, Lingshanhui, Yanyanhui, Longhuahui, Huayanhui, Three Buddhas, Three Buddhas, Bliss World, Bliss World, Tibetan statues of thousands of hands Guanyin, Qianxi Wenshu, Tantric Protector King Kong, and large Tantric Magic Block.
