The main attraction Huiji Temple Huiji Temple is located in the north of Tangquan Street, Pukou District, Nanjing. It was founded in the Southern Dynasties and was originally named Tangquan Temple.

Three rare ancient ginkgo trees in the temple have been over 1,5 years old so far, and it is said that they were planted by Xiao Tong, Prince of Xiaoliang in the Southern Dynasties. The Xianfeng period in Qing Dynasty was destroyed by war, but only part of it was rebuilt in Guangxu period, and the scale was far less than before. The existing relics in the temple include foundation stones, inscriptions, ancient wells and three ancient ginkgo trees. Huiji Temple was called the enemy station in ancient times. According to legend, during the Chu-Han War, Han Xin, a general, deployed in this place to defeat Xiang Yu, the overlord of the western Chu Dynasty. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu also led the rebel army to wipe out the nomads fleeing across the river to the north. According to "Jiang Pu Ba Cheng", "The Chinese enemy platform is located on Pukou City, which is located on Puzi Mountain, and the platform is built on its ridge, towering and magnificent, pitching the river and the sky, and it is the first scenic spot in Pukou." Since 1984, "Dianjiangtai" site has been listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Pukou District, and now it has been upgraded to a municipal cultural relic protection unit and is planned to be included in the main construction along the Jiangbei in Nanjing's "Great River Scenery Area". Located at the foot of Xihua Peak in Laoshan Mountain, Doulv Temple was founded in the late Ming Dynasty with a history of more than 3 years. Its founder was Zheng Jifan, the son of Zheng hired by Nanjing Jiangpu Gao Shi in the Ming Dynasty. After being edified by my father and diving into psychology, the young people in Fan Dynasty, because they were dissatisfied with political affairs in middle age, carefully studied and interpreted Buddhist scriptures, cut their hair into monks (known as Bai 'an monks), founded Shiziling Dojo, and later renamed Doulv Temple, which has always been a famous Buddhist temple in the north and south of the Yangtze River. The name of the temple named "Dou Temple" can also reveal the original intention of the founder to "preach scriptures and perform classics". Because of this, Dou Ling Temple did not build walls, gates or halls from the beginning, and only the building facilities with Tibetan scriptures as the main body were unique. Successive generations have all realized the original intention of their ancestors, and from the beginning to its peak, they have always maintained the characteristics of the original scholastic temples (that is, focusing on lectures and Tibetan scriptures), which is rare in many temples across the country. The seven Buddhist temples in Doulv Temple are located in the east of Forest Park, covering an area of more than 4 million square meters, and are composed of Maozi Mountain, Zhongyizi Mountain, Fulongshan Mountain and Eagle Mountain.

There are five peaks on the mountain, of which Xihua Peak and Lotus Peak are the most peculiar. According to folk legend, the Tibetan Bodhisattva sat in Xihua Mountain all night, and the stones in the back mountain rose from the ground, which looks like a lion, hence the name. Located on Longdong Mountain at an altitude of more than 4 meters, the Longdong Cave in Shiziling attracts many tourists with its steep mountain, large caves and wonderful legends.
