If you walk uphill from the Stone Gate Stream to the Mayi Mountain, you will see the ruins of Mayi Nunnery before your eyes. According to record, hermits of the old times had stayed here. In the cliff behind the nunnery there is a delicately made stone chamber with an arch door of two metres and carved door-frame. Three metres in front of the stone chamber there is a stone carved with lotus pattern. There used to be an iron bridge that connected the chamber with the lotus stone. There are characters engraved or written on the mountain walls in the chamber by people of the old days. In front of the nunnery there is a Lecture Stone which, according to popular belief, marks the end of the earth and the entrance to the fairy land. Standing on the flat platform to the west of the nunnery you can get a good view of Lingshan Bay on the east and Wanglong Bay on the west. The nunnery is a secluded place and is perfect for meditation.
