The Tiger Brook Rock lies on the southwest of Wangshi Rock. There is a temple, Dongling Temple, also called Jade Screen Temple, built during Emperor Wangli's reign of the Ming Dynasty. The temple had experienced rises and declines several times. Rebuilt in 1984, the present construction comes out of a huge rock and backed by a hill. Known sceneries there include Tiger Teeth Cave, Night Moon Cave, Clipping Sky Pathway, Flying Whale Rock. At night when the moon is shining upon, the rock is overwhelmed by a touch of mystery and people found it the best spot to admire the moon when it comes the Mid-autumn Moon Festval. One of the “Eight Major Landscapes of Xiamen”, “Night Moon at Tiger Brook” was born here due to this reason. |
