The poems describing "Nanputuo Temple" include:
The ancient temple in the East China Sea and the Ludao Zen Palace. Sitting at the foot of the shadow of the five elders, facing the silence of the world of mortals. After thousands of years of changes, we can read the achievements of hundreds of generations. Cut off the incense to accumulate sacrifices, and raise the remaining ashes to increase the glory. The ques are arranged based on the mountain terrain, and they are built with hills due to their hilly shape. Double eaves and soaring ridges, glazed tiles and beautiful porcelain. Qingding Xuanlu, west drum and east bell. As the stairs go up, the corridors pass by. The carved railing looks at the sea, and the white pagoda points to the dome. The welcome shines in the clear sky, and the sound of Sanskrit is heard in the green. The light spreads across the shore, turning into streams and shadows follow.
