The Temple of Improvement is an ancient temple in the Six Dynasties, which was built in Tian Liang Prison for fourteen years (AD 5 15). When Zhu Yuanzhang built Xiaoling Temple in the Ming Dynasty, he moved the temple here and renamed it Linggu Temple, known as "the first Zen forest in the world". It is one of the 48 scenic spots in Jinling, which was called "ancient spirit and deep pine" in ancient times.
