What travelers say:

Personally think that Lingyan Temple is undoubtedly the most must-see attraction in Zhangzhou City, although I have known it before I went, I still feel very shocked. As the largest and highest-grade monastery in Zhangzhou City, Lingyan Temple is not comparable to any other monument in the local area in terms of architectural beauty and momentum. In Zhangjiakou, only the Zhaohua Temple in Huai'an should be comparable to it. The existing buildings were built in the orthodox years of Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty Beijing official architectural style that is more familiar to the general people is still obvious difference. Lingyan Temple should be one of the representative examples of non-official local styles in the northern China of the Ming Dynasty. It is very different from the rough and open sword of the early buildings, with a proper proportion, and an extra elegant and calm. The front hall is the Temple of the Heavenly King, resting on the top of the mountain, and three rooms are wide. The proportion of the outing is well proportioned, the shape is beautiful, and the dragon-shaped kiss has a feeling of soaring. The interior is a good example of building the basic beam knowledge because it is completely built. The color painting inside the Temple of Heavenly Kings is also one of the highlights. Although the color has been unclear, it can still see the beautiful Ming Dynasty rotor color painting. The pattern of the heart including the tangled branches will be exquisite and delicate. The back hall is the Daxiong Palace, the top of the palace, and the five rooms are wide. It is the largest ancient building in Zhangzhou, and it is indeed extraordinary. The internal ceiling and algae wells are also very exquisite, and the photos completely reflect the tallness of the internal space and the algae well. The Daxiong Palace of Lingyan Temple is the essence of the entire Jixian architecture. Between the two temples, it is really intoxicating to feel the beauty of ancient Chinese architecture. Standing on the high platform of Zhenwu Temple behind, you can see the huge roof of Lingyan Temple, which is in stark contrast to other buildings around it. It is a pity that Jixian has no publicity for this architectural boutique and the highest-level temple in the local area, and it is buried in many ordinary monuments.
