About Jingju Temple

According to Wikipedia, Guangshan Jingju Temple , located in Guangshan County, Henan Province, China, also known as "Emperor entitled Brahma Temple", is the birthplace of Guangshan Jingju Temple Gate of China's first Buddhist sect, Tiantai Sect. In the fifth year of Tianbao in the Northern Qi dynasty , the eminent monk Huisi came to Dasu Mountain in Guangzhou to build a nunnery and open an altar to preach. Emperor Song Zhenzong's inscription "Emperor entitled Brahma Temple" is carved with five large-character plaques, which are still embedded on the door. The Daxiong Hall in the temple is a Ming dynasty building. There are still more than 30 steles inscribed by historical celebrities and scholars such as the "Emperor's powdered gold" stele in Wanli of the Ming dynasty, and the "Reconstruction Stele of Dasushan Brahma Temple" in Kangxi of Qing dynasty. The stele of Su Shi's poems on visiting Jingju Temple is also conserved within the temple.
