Hanshan bronze bell
The bell of Hanshan bronze bell in Hanshan Temple is famous all over the world, but the ancient bell in the Tang Dynasty has long since disappeared after the war. The giant clock cast during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1522- 1566) is said to have been "sold as a cannon during the political changes in Japan". So the Japanese Hanshan Yamada made a donation, and in 1905, he raised funds to recast the bronze bell and presented it to Hanshan Temple in Suzhou, which is now located on the right side of the Ursa Major Hall. The clock is about 0.8 meters high and 0.62 meters in diameter. There is a cast inscription "The bells of Hanshan Temple in Gusu ring". This clock consists of two pieces, one in Guanshan Temple in Japan and the other in Hanshan Temple, and it has been well preserved so far.

Chen Fang's classic collection office has sculptures of the Monkey King, Tang Priest, Pig Bajie and Sha Wujing in The Journey to the West on the roof of the Han Temple building. It is the image of Tang priest's master and apprentice returning from the west, and the theme fits the meaning of Buddhist scriptures very well. The inner wall of the first floor is embedded with the scriptures of King Kong Prajna Paramita (Zen). It is also embedded with calligraphy inscriptions by Dong Qichang (1555- 1636, a native of Songjiang, Shanghai, an outstanding painter and calligrapher in Ming Dynasty) and others.

It turned out that the Fengjiang Building of the temple collapsed 300 years ago. 1954, the famous "Flower Basket Building" of Song House in Xiuxian Lane, Suzhou was moved here. The flower basket building has only two main columns, just like the handle of the flower basket, which bears the weight of the whole building. On the first floor, at the tenon and front eaves of the girder, two finely carved orchids were replaced. The spiral staircase that spirals up depends on only one pillar to bear the weight of the whole staircase.
Hanshansi bell tower
There is a double-eaved hexagonal pavilion on the south side of the sutra building, which is light in shape and beautiful in outline. This is the bell tower which is famous for the "midnight bell". The giant clock is more than one person high, and it takes three people to hold it outside, weighing two tons. The bell is loud and melodious, and the sound is lingering. According to Buddhist legend, mortals have 108 kinds of troubles a year. As long as they smell the bell, they can "clear their troubles, gain wisdom and give birth to Bodhi". Therefore, every year on New Year's Eve, Chinese and foreign tourists gather in Hanshan Temple to listen to the bell of 108 from the bell tower, bid farewell to the old and welcome the new in the melodious bell, and pray for peace.
