It has a history of more than one thousand years. At that time, King Qian of Wuyue visited Lingfeng and was fascinated by the beauty of the rocks. After returning to Hangzhou, he bestowed a plaque with the words "Lingfeng Changxing" to glorify the mountain gate, and donated money to repair the temple, giving it a new look. In the second year of Song Zhiping (1065), it was renamed "Bai Fu Lecture Temple" and Emperor Yingzong bestowed a jade seal to guard the gate. In the 12th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed "Lingfeng Temple". It is one of the famous temples in Jiangnan and the ancestral temple of the Pure Land Sect. After thousands of years, many eminent monks emerged, and the career of Zen Master Liang Youyi began. In the Song Dynasty there was Zhongxian, in the Yuan Dynasty there was Ruyue, and in the late Ming Dynasty there was Master Ouyi who founded the Lingfeng School and started a new style. During the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, the temple was destroyed in war and not a single tile remained. The former abbot of Guoqing Temple in Tiantai Mountain, Master Diyin, made a great vow to rebuild the temple. After going through many hardships and soliciting donations from all directions, he spared no effort to rebuild the main hall, mountain gate, meditation hall, etc. Lingfeng Temple is backed by Lingfeng Mountain, with a winding river on its left and beautiful scenery on its right, and five peaks stacked up on the right, as if entering a fairyland. In front of the temple are towering ancient trees and lush greenery. Around the temple are majestic peaks and clouds and rain, which are naturally interesting and magnificent. Thousands of bamboos are shining and thousands of plum blossoms are welcoming the moon. The unique natural scenery and Buddhist influence have attracted emperors of all dynasties to visit. Qian Liu, the King of Wuyue, visited Lingfeng Temple twice and bestowed a plaque with "Lingfeng Changxing" to glorify the mountain gate. Emperor Yingzong of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Shu, personally visited Lingfeng Temple and bestowed a jade seal to guard the gate. Although Lingfeng Temple has suffered several disasters in history, it has been continuously visited by many people, thanks to the right time, place and people. In 1993, it was officially rebuilt and opened to the public with the approval of the Anji County Government. The Shanmen Hall is a brick and wood structure with a tall eaves, exquisite carvings, and dense brackets. A plaque with the words "Lingfeng Temple" hangs under the eaves. There is a tall ginkgo tree in front of the mountain gate hall. It is more than 1,000 years old, with an average crown width of 15 meters, a trunk thickness of 459 centimeters, and a height of 28 meters. You can't see the treetops when you look up. After thousands of years, he is still as tall as a boy, but has the experience of a sage. In addition, the temple has a Thousand Buddha Pagoda, which was built in 2005. It has six sides and nine floors and is about 30 meters high. It is the landmark building of Lingfeng Temple.
