The Nankuo temple hall had begun to take shape in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the original Dongchan Forest Temple was changed to Du Shaoling Temple. With three archway-style gates as the central axis, it forms three courtyards in the east, middle and west. There are front and rear yards inside the Zhongshan Gate, the east and west watch towers in the front yard, the bell and drum towers in the back, and the east and west Zen forest courtyards. Now the west courtyard is still the "Chanlin Courtyard", and the east is the Du Shaoling Temple, where there are three statues of Du Fu and the servant boy.
The backyard is a spacious and grand Tianwang hall with three rooms and two entrances. In the courtyard, there is a three-branched ancient cypress that has grown from 2300 to 2500 years. In the south, there is a black frost-skinned branch, as dry as firewood, straight into the sky, but the top is still youthful, with lush branches and leaves. A branch in the northwest direction has withered. In the north, a branch is cleverly placed on the branch of the locust tree. What's more amazing is that a black egg tree (hackberry) with a bust of 108 cm is parasitic in the split trunk, which is dependent on the old tree.
