The only temple where love is spoken of

Pujiu Temple is located 3 kilometers east of the ancient city of Puzhou in Yongji City, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province, on the top of Emei Yuan. Pujiu Temple was founded during the Tang Dynasty under Empress Wu Zetian, originally named Xiyong Qingyuan, and is a Buddhist Zen monastery in all directions. The love story of 'Hongniang tying the red thread under the moon, Zhang Sheng cleverly meeting Cui Yingying' mentioned in Wang Shifu's 'The Romance of the Western Chamber' by Yuan Dynasty took place inside Pujiu Temple. The temple's halls, pavilions, galleries, and pagodas are built upon the plateau, rising step by step, giving a sense of grandeur, majesty, and elegance. Interspersed among them are 'Xixuan' where Zhang Sheng stayed, 'Lihua Deep Courtyard' where Cui Yingying's family lived, and 'Shuzhai Courtyard' where Zhang Sheng moved after the white horse resolved the siege. Behind the temple is a garden with undulating terrain, forming a lively garden. The rockery in the garden is precipitous as if cut, and the 'Oriole Language Pavilion' has flying eaves and upturned corners. A curved path like a magpie bridge stretches across the lotus pond, connecting pavilions and bridges, lakes, and mountains. Yingying's 'Moon Worship Platform' is hidden among green pines, cypresses, and thousands of bamboo poles. The Yingying Pagoda standing in the temple is not only simple in shape and spectacular, but also famous for its unique structure and clear echo effect. Visitors knock on the side of the pagoda with a stone, and the pagoda will emit a crisp and pleasant 'croak-croak' sound of a toad, which amazes visitors. This pagoda, along with the Echo Wall of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, the Pagoda of Baolun Temple in Henan, and the 'Stone Qin' in the Dafo Temple in Tongnan District, Chongqing, is known as one of the four great echo buildings in China; together with the Shaking Head Pagoda in Shan State, Myanmar, the Music Tower in Sopron, Hungary, the Fragrance Tower in Marrakesh, Morocco, the Bell Tower in Paris, France, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, it is known as one of the six wonders of the world.
