This kind of technique is rare in Chinese Buddhist buildings, while it can be seen in many Christian churches. The temple will locate in the foot of the mountain, which is famous for its scenic spot Bai Dao Fei Pu, the design will separated to 2 parts, and will be pointed to the peak via a way that starts from the front hall to the back hall, so as to present that the mountain equals the Buddha, and the Buddha is the mountain.

The round dooryard in the back hall forms half of the hall.
