Zixia Mountain Villa
Zixia Mountain Villa is located in Wulian Village, Timian Town, embraced by mountains, with waterfalls and flowing streams. The environment is serene and the air is fresh. It is said that beneath the Tiger Cave scenic spot within the villa lies the burial site of monks, and there are also two century-old banyan trees. At the foot of the naturally formed Reclining Buddha mountain ridge, there are numerous historical relics related to Buddhist connections. Devotees aspiring to establish a sacred place built Zixia Mountain Villa, and thus Longhua Chan Temple came into being. The temple features Ming and Qing architectural styles, elegant and refined, integrating Buddhist culture with artistic appreciation. In 2015, the Timian Town government provided the Xianjiamiao and Guanyinmiao temples within the Gaobai Zhang Scenic Area to Longhua Temple for free management and use, further strengthening the standardized management of religious sites and better meeting the religious activity needs of the faithful.
Regarding Zixia Mountain Villa, local people also pass down this story: long, long ago, there was a "Fairy Bridge" in front of the "Mahavira Hall" in the villa. This "bridge" was originally "built" by immortals using a tree root from a large banyan tree. It is evident that the villa is filled with an ethereal charm, making it a place where immortals and refined scholars would be inclined to stay.
