What travelers say:

In Huizhou West Lake, I visited Fenghui Garden, not far east along the north bank of Pinghu is Yuan Miaoguan. Yuan Miaoguan is one of the three famous Taoist views in China, and one of the 23 famous Taoist views in China. In 1993, Huizhou Taoist Association was established, with Yuan Miaoguan as the meeting site. Yuan Miaoguan was founded in the Tang Dynasty Zhenguan seven years (633), the first name of Tianqing Guan Tianbao seven years (748) after the expansion of the name of the Dynasty Yuanguan, and then changed to Kaiyuanguan; the Song Dynasty has repeatedly been in the past; Yuan Dynasty Yuanzhen two years (1296) rebuilt, began to be called Yuan Miaoguan; Ming Dynasty Tiantong, Tianshun and Qing Dynasty Kangxi, Guangxu years have been built. Since the establishment of several times, the late Yuan Dynasty is the most prosperous, "cross flow heavy, painted magnificent, like a Weiyi". Yuan Miaoguan, there is a "Nine Purple" in front of the door to indicate the meaning of "Purple Gas Donglai". The interior is divided into two temples, the front is the Jade Emperor Palace, the back is the Sanqing Pavilion, the two temples are separated by patios and connected by corridors. It is rumored that the Yingxian Bridge in the "Six Bridges" will go to Yuanmiaoguan to meet the gods and the gods. In 1942, the Japanese army was stationed in the view of the soldiers when they invaded the benefit, and saw that there were anti-Japanese slogans on the wall, so they burned the Sanqing Palace, Yuhuang Pavilion and the Partial Palace. Due to the great changes in the vicissitudes of many years, there are not many ancient buildings left by Yuanmiaoguan, and only the mountain gates have retained the architectural characteristics of the Ming Dynasty. The stone pillars of the mountain gate are engraved with "Yuanlai Zifu Kaitang Dynasty" and "Miaofeng Lake is separated from the customs". In the 1950s, the front mountain gate and the left hall still exist, and there are many statues such as the jade emperor. There are only a few Taoists in the view, but the incense is not broken. During the "Cultural Revolution", Yuan Miaoguan was tragically damaged, and the statues were destroyed. The cultural relics such as celebrity stone monuments, woodcuts, and iron bells of the Ming Dynasty left over from successive generations have disappeared. Yuan Miaoguan has experienced a great change in the vicissitudes of more than 1,000 years, and there are not many ancient buildings left, and only the mountain gates retain the architectural characteristics of the Ming Dynasty. When Su Dongpo lived in Huizhou in the Song Dynasty, he often had exchanges with Tianqing Guandao, drinking poetry, and writing many poems. The Song Dynasty purple halal white jade qi used to practice in Tianqing, Kangxi years, Zhifu Wangqi built the white real person Ziqing Pavilion and engraved "Ziqing Pavilion Baizhenren not standing like a monument" stone, is Huizhou ancient stone. In 1982, the left side of the temple was first repaired, the statues of the Jade Emperor and the Guanyin gods were re-opened and religious activities resumed. In 1985, the Jade Emperor and the Sanqing Palace were built, and the foundation was laid in 1987 and opened in 1989. In 1990, Yuan Miaoguan was approved as a cultural relics protection unit in Huizhou City.
