The modern look of the "Mirror
    Polishing Terrace", a famous site in
    Zen history.  This location just outside
    the grounds at Fuyan Temple
    commemorates the place that Zen
    master Nanyue was pretending to
    'polish the brick' into a 'mirror' when
    his disciple Mazu came upon him and
    asked him what he was doing(see full
    story on main page).

    The 3 big golden chararacters on the
    boulder are:
