Yongfu Temple

永福禅寺

A lesser-known ancient temple built into the mountain within the Lingyin scenic area. Tea gardens, bamboo and meditation halls create a peaceful place to sit, and it is quieter than the main Lingyin Temple.

Yongfu Chan Temple lies beneath Shisun Peak on the west side of the Lingyin scenic area. It was first built in the Eastern Jin dynasty. The temple's halls are stacked up the mountain slope, with tea gardens, bamboo paths and streams in between. The Fuquan Tea Courtyard offers tea with views of the mountains. It is quieter than the main Lingyin Temple, and in recent years it has become a popular photo spot for young people. You must first buy a ticket to the Lingyin scenic area (Feilai Peak), and then a temple ticket of about 10 yuan. It is about 10 minutes on foot from Lingyin Temple.
