Where is the fairy home in Nanjing?

There is a fairy family in Daxian Temple in Qinhuai District, Nanjing. Daxian Temple is the only temple in Nanjing where the front hall is dedicated to Buddha statues and the back hall is dedicated to immortals. Daxian Temple is a combination of Buddhism and Taoism. The most lovely and respectable immortals in the temple are all called "three grandfathers". According to legend, during the Ming Dynasty, Wong Tai Sin appeared in Dashishan, Nanjing, and everyone raised funds to build Daxian Temple, which is a Taoist temple. Houdaxian Temple was repeatedly built and destroyed. In 2007, it was renamed Daxian Temple as a place for Buddhist activities, while retaining the Taoist temple. It was rebuilt and opened to the outside world in 2009. Therefore, it has become a unique temple in Nanjing: the Daxiong Hall dedicated to Sakyamuni Buddha, and the Daxian Hall behind it dedicated to three grandfathers: Wong Tai Sin, Zhang He Wang.
