Built in the Tang Dynasty, Zijin Temple is situated to the west of East Mountain. It went trough ups and downs over the years. The main buildings may be only a hall and a room, but the lifelike clay sculptures of arhats created by the famous Southern Song Dynasty sculptor Lei Chao and his wife are what brought fame to the temple. The arhat images are a testament to the superb techniques of Chinese sculptors over 800 years ago.
