Legend has it that Yixiang returned to China after studying abroad in the Tang Dynasty in China.

Turning into the temple in front of the Hongni Gate, on both sides of the hall, you can see the earthen walls and black bamboos mixed with mud and stone and paved with tiles. Next to the bronze bell on the north side of Luoshan Temple Beach, there is a small back door connected to Yixiangtai and Honglian Temple along a path. Yixiangtai is a pavilion built on a cliff by the sea, where Master Yixiang once practiced meditation. Red Lotus Nunnery is an nunnery built by Master Yixiang on a seaside grotto. A hole with a diameter of about 10 centimeters was dug in the eaves of the Fatang, and the sea can be seen from here. Go to the right foot of the mountain via Yixiangtai, where there is a stone Buddha statue of Guanyin standing on the Shenxian Peak standing looking out to the sea. The Buddha statue is so huge that it can be seen even from the far away port of Wuzi.
