The spatial pattern of Wuye Temple is composed of Wenshu Temple, Wuye Temple, Wanfo Pavilion, monk house and stage. Wuye Temple sits north to south, the main building is Wulongwang Palace and Wenshu Temple, the total area of 2040 square meters, there are 6 temples, 3 Chonglou, 20 monk houses, 1 stage, 2 pagodas, 3 Mingbei; it is one of the most incense temples in Wutai Mountain. The five masters worshipped in the temple are the legendary Guangji Dragon King Bodhisattva, which is the product of Wenshu Bodhisattva's localization and secularization in Taihuai, relying on people's wish to harvest crops, no disasters, family health, and everything goes well. Folk legend Wu Ye was originally black face, but Wenshu Bodhisattva became a five dragon king in order to help all beings, so the black face became a golden face. Wenshu Bodhisattva became a five dragon king like to watch the play, so he built an ancient stage opposite the five dragon king palace, specially for the five master.
