The large dome is shaped like the Buddha's robe covering the small dome, symbolizing the Buddha's immeasurable blessings. The lower part of the small dome is shaped like a lotus throne, and the upper part is shaped like a Mani jewel. Together, they form the sacred image of "a lotus supporting a precious jewel".

Its architectural style follows the seven halls system of Chan Buddhist temples, built against the mountain and connected by a central axis, making it solemn and symmetrical.
