There are more than 100 important historical buildings and traditional houses in the historical and cultural villages and towns of Buddhist temples, most of which were built in the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Compared with the typical Jiangnan residential style, the ancient Buddhist temple buildings are different from the general Jiangnan buildings. Their appearance inherits the Matou gable of Huizhou folk houses, and their detail decoration, architectural structure and construction combine the unique local wood carving, brick carving and stone carving techniques, and the carved flowers and patterns are rich in connotation and skills.
The ancient Buddhist temple town has a long history, and places of interest abound. At present, in the ancient town, the municipal-level cultural relics protection units include Liugengtang, Xiao Jie Shipaifang, Maojia Courtyard, Wu Qiji's former residence, Liu Xuan Primary School and Youlong Temple. Municipal cultural relics protection units include Wang's former residence, 18 rooms, Zhang Sanmao Hall, Xin Nanshan's former residence, Zhihuaitang and so on.
From north to south, Puchuanxi runs through the town from east to west, and there are mountains looming in the distance, ancient camphor trees standing in front of us, and the warm local natural climate, all of which are important factors that constitute the charming natural scenery of the ancient Buddhist temple town.
From the west of the river, approach the ancient town through Wanshan Bridge and reach the new base on the edge of the old street. There is a big camphor tree with DBH about 1.8 meters, which has a history of more than 800 years. The towering branches are antique and mysterious. Another old camphor tree that echoes this camphor tree stands in the new city base. There is an old holly at the ferry head, which is about 300 years old.

Important figures closely related to the prosperity of Buddhist temples are: Master Fu, Qi Jiguang He, famous civil servants in the Northern Song Dynasty, famous Confucianism, medical sage Xu Xing, Wang and so on, who enjoy a high reputation in the Buddhist circles in China.
