鳳山寺規模(mo),縱為16丈,橫1.4丈。寺殿(dian)(dian)(dian)分(fen)前后三殿(dian)(dian)(dian)。主(中)殿(dian)(dian)(dian)高1.8丈,夾室各一,東夾室鍶尊(zun)王(wang)、尊(zun)妃像,從其坐古(gu)藤化身之(zhi)舊跡,室后為內寢;西夾室供奉釋(shi)迦(jia)牟尼、南海觀(guan)世音金身。前殿(dian)(dian)(dian)高1.85丈,中祀尊(zun)王(wang),旁祀崇德侯、顯佑(you)侯、黃太蔚、陳(chen)將軍,以其有功于王(wang)。殿(dian)(dian)(dian)宇疏以庭(ting)院(yuan),繞以墻垣(yuan)。垣(yuan)屋(wu)翼于左(zuo)右 ,有30余間,為寺僧聚納之(zhi)處。廟門高1.4丈,明(ming)代舉人、永春顏廷渠題寺匾"鳳山覽勝"。門內一巨石(shi),山峭卓立,狀若云鬟,昔人喻為鳳髻。門外列磚為庭(ting),曲(qu)磴(deng)層階(jie)穿數而出。
明(ming)(ming)世宗(zong)(zong)(zong)嘉(jia)靖年(nian)(nian)間(公元(yuan)1522-1566年(nian)(nian)),倭寇劫掠詩山,縱火焚(fen)毀廟(miao)宇(yu),所藏敕賜匾額蕩然無存。明(ming)(ming)穆宗(zong)(zong)(zong)隆(long)慶(qing)丁(ding)卯年(nian)(nian)( 公元(yuan)1567年(nian)(nian)),鄉(xiang)鄰募資重建(jian);明(ming)(ming)神宗(zong)(zong)(zong)萬歷庚辰(chen)年(nian)(nian)(公元(yuan)1580年(nian)(nian)),繼而擴建(jian);清宣宗(zong)(zong)(zong)道光丁(ding)亥年(nian)(nian)(公元(yuan)1827年(nian)(nian))到(dao)清德宗(zong)(zong)(zong)光緒(xu)戊(wu)寅年(nian)(nian)(公元(yuan)1878年(nian)(nian)),相(xiang)繼屢(lv)有修葺營造。寺宇(yu)規(gui)模(mo)日益(yi)宏敞,壯觀(guan)綺麗,不失舊觀(guan),又增(zeng)建(jian)諸多前代(dai)沒有的設施。
鳳(feng)山寺屬多神(shen)廟(miao),傳統以來曾有和尚(shang)主(zhu)持,主(zhu)神(shen)郭圣(sheng)王(wang)佛(fo)像雕塑特殊,白(bai)眼黑珠直視,故有"白(bai)目佛(fo),益外景"之說(shuo),所以更為(wei)海外華僑所崇拜 。
鳳(feng)山(shan)寺(si),宋、明、清各代都(dou)有(you)皇帝為之(zhi)賜匾封(feng)號(hao),因而香火鼎盛不衰。明清時期,泉州一帶大批移(yi)居臺灣,因此臺灣民(min)間(jian)有(you)100多(duo)座(zuo)廣澤尊(zun)王(wang)廟。泉州人(ren)出洋謀生的華僑很多(duo),因而遠在東南亞的新加坡、馬來西亞、印尼、緬甸、泰國、菲律賓(bin)等地都(dou)有(you)鳳(feng)山(shan)寺(si),供奉郭(guo)圣王(wang)。
1978年(nian)冬,旅(lv)居海外僑胞紛紛倡議重建(jian)(jian)。歷(li)十年(nian)營(ying)造,鳳(feng)(feng)山寺(si)規模日臻宏偉,寺(si)門與高(gao)蓋山白云室(shi)(shi)遙遙相對(dui),居高(gao)臨下(xia),俯(fu)瞰山頭城全景,周圍(wei)茂林蔥翠(cui),花果飄香,秀麗如(ru)(ru)畫(hua),新(xin)建(jian)(jian)鳳(feng)(feng)山寺(si)前殿、中殿、后殿的木石(shi)均(jun)精雕(diao)細刻,巧奪天工 ,青石(shi)龍柱,護門石(shi)獅,栩栩如(ru)(ru)生。左右兩旁依次建(jian)(jian)有鐘鼓樓、回廊、拜廳 、禪房(fang)、齋堂 、迎賓室(shi)(shi)、鳳(feng)(feng)冠鬢(bin)、藏經閣、聚金亭等設施,規格龐大,巍峨壯觀(guan),景觀(guan)煥然一新(xin)。
