Historical Evolution Liang Qing Temple was founded in the Southern Dynasties. The exact age is unknown during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. Yang Wushun and Zhong Yi (92 1-927), the prime minister Xu Wen rebuilt it and named it Xingjiao Temple, so he asked Wukong to retire as a Buddhist abbot. In the early Yuan Dynasty (938), Yuan Zong Li Jing expanded Xingjiao Temple into a cool avenue and invited the abbot of Wen Yi Zen Master. Since then, Stone Mountain has been renamed Liang Qingshan. In the fifth year of the Northern Song Dynasty (972), it was renamed Liang Qing Guanghui Temple, which was repeatedly abandoned and built. In the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1403), Zhu Bian, the king of Zhou Dynasty, rebuilt the mountain temple, and Judy, the founder, wrote "Liang Qing Zen Temple". The temple was very big at that time, and its base site covered an area of 20 mu. There are three buildings in the temple: the mountain gate, the Heavenly King Hall, the Bell Tower, the Buddha Hall, the Galapagos Hall, the Ancestral Hall and the Pilu Hall, as well as eight abbots' rooms and nine temples. In the third year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (1853), when the Taiping Army occupied Nanjing, it destroyed the cultural relics in Nanjing on a large scale, and Liang Qing Temple was not spared. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, the temple was restored and rebuilt on the original site, but the scale was not as good as before. It was not until the Cultural Revolution that Buddhist activities were forced to stop, but there were still monks living here until the 1990s.

Gong Xian (16 19 ~ 1689), a famous painter and poet in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, lived in Liang Qing after his death. He once painted himself and swept the fallen leaves with a broom in his hand, hence the name "Sweeping the Leaf Building".

The first two entrances are connected by verandas on both sides, and the third entrance is called "cool view". It is an ancient building with a height of 6 meters, a width of 16 meters and a depth of 20 meters.

Cultural Value Culture The idiom "He who unties the bell must tie it" has come from Liang Qing Temple since ancient times. During the lecture, Fayan asked all the monks in the temple, "Who can untie the golden bell tied around the tiger's neck?" Everyone thought twice, but couldn't answer. At this time, the magic light just came over and the eyes asked him this question again. Deng Fa replied without thinking: "Only those who tie the golden bell around the tiger's neck can untie the golden bell."
