Daming temple cultural relics

On the east inclined wall outside the mountain gate, there is a stone carving inscribed with the words "the first scene in Huaidong". This monument was built during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty and was built by Yangzhou Zhifu Gao. It is engraved with the sentence meaning of Qin Shaoyou, a famous poet in Song Dynasty, praising daming temple's landscape, which was written by Jiang Heng, a calligrapher in Jintan. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Yangzhou was under the jurisdiction of Huainan East Road, and famous writers Su Zhe (Ziyou) and Qin Guan (Shaoyou) visited daming temple, chanting poems.

On the wall of the East Gallery of the North Courtyard of daming temple Dongqingkong Pavilion, there is the seal script Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra inscribed by the famous calligrapher Deng in Qing Dynasty, which is a rare seal script treasure in China. At the time of writing this Heart Sutra, Deng, 665,438+0 years old, lived in the mountain temple for more than a month, smoked vegetarian dishes every day, and personally observed them to show elegance. This monument is Deng's first masterpiece. On the south wall of the East Gallery of Ursa Major, Deng's seal script is also engraved: "Is there an article that shocked the sea and carried a book of swordsmen all over the world?" This is also a treasure of Deng's stone carvings.

In the Qing Dynasty, Yong Zhengdi wrote an inscription for daming temple: "Wan Song Yue * * * a column lang, five nights wind sings with Zen." Gan Long's inscription: "Huaihai wonders cannot be separated from pure land, and the mountains and rivers are quiet and far away."
