南北均有(you)(you)道路與(yu)縣城相連,交通(tong)方便。金光(guang)寺(si)與(yu)神仙洞(dong)風景區隔河相望。南岸有(you)(you)七座山(shan)峰,蜿蜒(yan)起伏,宛若一(yi)條(tiao)巨龍俯臥(wo)山(shan)崗,其頭、脖(bo)、背(bei)、爪、尾清(qing)晰(xi)可見,人稱臥(wo)龍山(shan)。綏芬河九曲十(shi)八彎,金光(guang)寺(si)正好是(shi)建在第十(shi)八彎上,是(shi)一(yi)座不可多得的寶寺(si)。
金(jin)光寺(si)的興盛,還取(qu)決于它得天(tian)獨(du)厚的地理位置。金(jin)光寺(si)距離古西(xi)南(nan)絲(si)綢之路(lu)一博南(nan)古道不(bu)遠(yuan),便利的交通(tong),不(bu)僅帶來了(le)繁榮,也促進了(le)文化的發展(zhan)。
