Historically, the predecessor of Jiming Temple was from Xu Temple in Sun Wu to Yongkang in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This mountain was founded by Houshan Mountain, Wufosi Temple and Jiming Temple in Hongwu, Ming Dynasty, and is the abbot of the Monk Temple. It was not until 1958 that the structure of the temple was adjusted to Zhong Ni. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. The nuns are also in the temple, and the male monks are also in the "temple", just like the "Jinsu" in southwest Nanjing. Everything in it is a monk. In the history of Nanjing, Zhong Ni is also called Nanjing City.

Jiming Temple, which was a monk's temple before 1958, was adjusted from Nanjing 1955. I originally planned to organize Zhong Ni Dojo in Qixia or Linggu Temple. Because it is not safe for Zhong Ni in Zongcheng County to go to the suburbs, I suggest that Zhong Ni Temple be arranged in Jiming Temple. The city adopted its opinion, and by 1958, when the Nanjing design of Chenghuang Temple was officially adjusted, Jiming Temple was designated as Zhong Ni.

During the Cultural Revolution, Zhong Ni decentralized the Qinglong Mountain Forest Farm. After Zongcheng, Master came back with 1 1 Zhong Ni, determined to restore and rebuild Jiming Temple. After Zong Cheng was too lonely, Master Lianhua inherited the abbot and completed the reconstruction task, and Jiming Temple became the present scale.

1387 (the 20th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty), Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of Ming Dynasty, ordered the demolition of the old house, the expansion of its scale and the reconstruction of the temple. The year number of Zhu Yuanzhang is "Zhongming Temple". After the expansion of Xuande, Chenghua and Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty, the courtyard was large, covering an area of 100 mu. Later, the ancient temple was destroyed in the battle of Xianfeng. Although rebuilt in the same year, the scale is greatly reduced, but the fragrance is very strong.

During the reign of Sun Wu, a temple named "Qi Xuan Temple" was built near Jiming Temple, and it was named Qixuanchi on the north side of Jiming Mountain. The seventh emperor of the Southern Dynasties, Wang Hong, a Zhou native, was modest and frugal, full of confidence in his father, and gave him a reward in a henhouse in Lubei.
