Tianning Temple, Dazang Yard as its former name, was built in Bei Song (AD1008-1016), given the name "Chen Tian Temple". It is until from AD 1111 to 1118 that it began to be called "Tian Ning Temple". In AD 1138 the emperor of Song Gaozong gave it another name Bao En Guang Temple, Later changed into "Bao En Guang Xiao" But now only the palace is preserved, and was announced as a key historical relic of protection by the State Council in 1988. Its palace is one of the typical wooden structural architecture of Yuan Dynasty and still exists nowadays in the south. Its length and breadth amount to three rooms respectively, and it gets a bit thin on top. In the eastern part of this palace the three Jueling has the epitaph: for celebration in June of AD 1318. According to the experiment through the scientific test of the charcoal-14, some of the columns have the history of thousands of years, and some liangling arch could date back to eight hundred years ago. From this point, this palace has preserved partial wooden structure of Song Dynasty through the rebuilding in Yuan Dynasty. Such structure also reflects the architectural style and feature of Song Dynasty.

The Tongji bridge is conventionally called Jinhua Bridge, which is located in the south western corner of the urban. It is one of the places of interest in Jinhua, standing across the Wu River, and has become an important connection between the south and the north, an in portant way to Lanxi and Quzhou. In the daytime, an endless stream of pedestrians and traffics shuttle back and forth on it; at night, the lights and the bridge itself are reflected on the surface of the rippling water. The night scene is so beautiful that can make you forget to go home.
