At that time, there was a release pond beside the "Dashidian", which was dedicated to Master Guanyin. The pond is divided into two layers, the fish pond above and the turtle pond below. There are hundreds of turtles in the turtle pond, large and small, dense. In the Heavenly King Hall dedicated to Maitreya, the "Four donkey kong" on the side was carved by a famous craftsman in Fujian. In another hall, there is a couplet inscribed by Li Songnian, governor of Zhili, which was awarded to Dai Hualing in Guangxu period (1898).
Looking for fairy mountains at sea,
In an instant, Brahma Yulin Palace opened the ground and went to the music country;
This cup degree is in Fujian,
Xiangchan will ask Miaolian after 20 years.
The hall inscribed by Emperor Guangxu is the center of Gokurakuji, where Sakyamuni and his two great disciples, Ye Jia and Ananda, are enshrined. There are many buildings in the temple, such as Miaolian Hall, the abbot of Kaishan Mountain, and Jiutian Xuan Nv Hall. There is also a "Taoguang Pavilion" engraved with Song of Awakening the World written by Luo Hongxian, the top scholar in the sixth year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (1527). The content of the poem is very simple. People are scrambling to read it, nodding their heads frequently and reading between the lines, which is quite philosophical. On the left back mountain platform of the temple stands a ten thousand Buddha Pagoda about 30 meters high. The tower is divided into seven floors, and its design embodies the cultural styles of China, Thailand and Myanmar. The bottom two floors are typical octagonal palace buildings in China, with cornices, ribbed tiles, dragon and phoenix decorations and glazed tiles, shining in the sun; The middle three floors are in the color of ancient Thai temples, with a square structure with convex and concave floating overlapping, and each concave arch hole is carved with Buddha statues; The top two floors are completely Burmese-style circular tower design. It has 18 arches, a yellow circular tower top and several flat spheres stacked on it, and the top is tapered. This 10,000-Buddha Pagoda was started on 19 15 and completed on 1927. It is a unique architectural wonder in the world, which makes people praise me for entering the Pagoda. The ground floor is dedicated to Pilu Tathagata, with white tiles and Buddha statues. There are seven Buddha statues on the second floor, sitting or standing, four of which are marble sculptures, which are very precious, and the walls are specially made gold relief Buddha statues; There are three Buddha statues in the tower on the third floor, many porcelain sculptures and bronze relief Buddha statues on the wall, and five Buddha statues outside the tower; On the fourth floor, there is a reclining Buddha carved in marble, and there are countless white porcelain relief Buddha statues on the wall; On the fifth floor, there are three marble Buddha statues; On the sixth floor, there is a bell carved reclining Buddha, and there are also bell embossed Buddha statues on the wall. There are also five Buddha statues outside the tower. There are three marble Buddha statues on the 7th floor, and the walls are porcelain-printed Buddha statues.
Climb to the top of the tower, lift your eyes and look out, and you can see the far and near scenery of Penang.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda was once called Tomita, and on the right side of the Pagoda is the Great Wishing Hall dedicated to the Tibetan Bodhisattva. There is a pair of nameless couplets that are thought-provoking: "All beings in Wan Li are in sight, and ten buddhas bow down." A large Guanyin statue is carved on a hill not far from the tower, with a height of 10 meters and a beautiful shape. Many tourists came forward to take pictures as a souvenir.
There are also ponds, turtle ponds and gardens. On the hillside behind Gokurakuji, a huge statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva stands in Wei Li, as if overlooking the world.
