The Rest Palace was built in 973 of the Song Dynasty. With a length of five rooms and a width of three rooms, the Chinese style building was constructed with slightly sloping roofs with thick and short pillars to support them. It is the oldest existing wooden building in He'nan Province.

To the north of Linyuan Gate are Jidu Pond and Pearl Spring, both of which are the east source of Jishui River.

In the courtyard, visitors can enjoy the clean springs, pavilions around the pond, green ancient cypresses. It is really a typical garden in north China.

There are 36 ancient buildings constructed in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. With a long history of about one thousand years, now the wooden structure buildings serve as a tiny vivid museum of architectural art of ancient China.

Yuhuang (Jade emperor) Palace, the administrative hall of Jade emperor, was constructed in the early period of the Qing Dynasty with a style of Ming architecture. It is valuable for the study of the ancient buildings in northwest of Henan Province.

In the palace, visitors can watch pavilions in ancient Chinese styles, enjoy the running stream and appreciate the steles. Occasionally they can hear the toll of bells and the sound of drums coming from cypress forest. Here visitors can feel the Jishui culture and its glory of over one thousand years.

The Decree Stele of Ming Dynasty was erected in 1370 of the Ming Dynasty with a height of 5.5 meters and a width of 1.7 meters.

On the stele is carved a decree issued by Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, which was to standardize the titles of famous mountains, rivers, temples, loyal ministers, martyrs, etc. Looking neat and vigorous, the inscription also serves as an important document for the study of the system of politics, economy, culture and etiquette in the early stage of the Ming Dynasty.

In the temple are green cypresses with a history of 1,800 years. They are over 20 meters tall and can be embraced by five adults hand in hand. One of them is called Han cypress. Legend has it that a goddess named Empress Wangmu planted it and carefully cultivated it. Another one is called General Cypress. It is said a general of the Tang Dynasty once hanged his weapon, an iron whip, on the cypress when he was in charge of the construction of the temple. Later the cypress was granted a title of General Cypress by an emperor.
