伏虎寺 Fúhǔsì, Crouching Tiger Temple 位于峨眉山麓瑜伽河与虎溪汇流处。始建於唐,原名神龙堂。因为寺院附近常常有虎出没,寺院僧人建造寺庙以镇虎,并改名为伏虎寺。寺宇隐没于密林之中,然而屋顶常年没有枯叶,清康熙帝为此题名“离垢园”。 Fuhusi (Currently a nunnery) Located at the foot of Emeishan at the confuence of the Yujia and Huxi streams. First built in Tang, formerly called the Shenlongtang Dragon Spirit Hall. Because in the vicinity tigers came and went, the monks built a temple to pacify the tigers and changed the name to Fuhusi. The temple is hidden in a pine forest, but the temple roofs never collect pine needles. Therefore the Qing Emperor Kangxi (1662-1723) named it the "Always Clean Garden".
