Longquan Temple, located at the southern foot of Xiufeng Mountain in Xiaomei Village, Meishan Township, Nan 'an City, faces south and is surrounded by green trees, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. Facing the "Guishan", it looks like a solemn and beautiful crown, and the ancients called it "incense burner". There are two hills on each side, like two torchbearers holding the torch. On the left is the "Royal Flag Peak" and on the right is the "Guanyin Mountain", which was called "Candlestick" by the ancients.

There is a mountain peak more than 800 meters above sea level in the northwest of Nan 'an City, which is named "Xiufeng Mountain" because of its lush trees and beautiful peaks. At the southern foot of Xiufeng Mountain, there is a temple with a long history-Longquan Temple. Walking on the country road, all the way is green trees, a lush scene. At the foot of Xiufeng Mountain, I raised my head and arched a "golden chair", on which Longquan Temple is located.
History of Longquan Temple
"Longquan Temple was built in the Southern Tang Dynasty and has a history of thousands of years. According to Nan 'an county records, according to legend, in ancient times, the monk who started the mountain saw the black snake enter the cave and got a sword. After giving it to the king of Min, he named the courtyard "Longquan Temple". Its temples are huge, with 99 meditation rooms in the Yuan Dynasty. For thousands of years, Longquan Temple has been burning incense continuously, attracting countless good men and women to worship. According to legend, at its peak, there were 99 monks in the temple. However, the data of 99 magically lasted for a long time. As long as there are new monks in the temple, one will leave or die. Longquan Temple reached its peak in the Yuan Dynasty, but due to historical changes, the temple was damaged several times. It was not until 1942 that the good men and women in Meishan Township raised funds for reconstruction. However, after 10 years, Longquan Temple was destroyed again to get rid of feudal superstition. Historical changes, until today, Longquan Temple has experienced vicissitudes and suffered serious damage. Due to disrepair, now only broken walls is left, desolate everywhere, and there is nowhere to pray for goodwill in all directions. I'm sorry.

Rebuilding Longquan Temple?
Based on the principle of "originating from history, surpassing history", we will explore the original appearance of Longquan Temple and create a new era of temple culture. In terms of design and planning, the construction of the new temple will aim at "promoting Buddhism and educating all living beings". The main body of the temple will be built into a progressive courtyard, creating a traditional spatial effect of "how deep the courtyard is". Longquan Temple, which will be rebuilt soon, will be dedicated to the Tibetan King and Bodhisattva. In China, Mahayana Buddhism is represented by four great bodhisattvas, namely Manjusri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Among the four great bodhisattvas, Guanyin and Dizang really help the grassroots, and folk beliefs are very popular, almost household names, and everyone knows them. In ancient and modern times in China, many eminent monks and great virtues praised the Tibetan Bodhisattva and vigorously promoted the Tibetan law, so as to carry forward "all living beings do their best to prove Bodhi; It is my responsibility to regard the Tibetan spirit of' the hell is not empty, I swear not to become a Buddha'. " After the temple is completed, it will continue to be dedicated to Fu You the Great and Guanyin Bodhisattva.

After its completion, Longquan Temple will be the first temple dedicated mainly to bodhisattvas in Nan 'an and even Fujian Province, which will make the four places believe in Buddhism and pray, and will play a positive role in promoting the Tibetan spirit.
