The origin of the name of Miaoya Township

Since the Tang Dynasty, this place has been named "Temple Cliff" because of its numerous temples, forming a number of temples, and it is also the main road leading to Fenglai, Yajiang, Tongluo, Moon-sending and Fuling. Due to the clean-up of the "Four Old Houses" during the Cultural Revolution, it has been destroyed, but the names of the temples still exist. For example, Changhong Temple, Longwan Temple, Miaobao Temple, Hongmiao Temple, phoenix temple, Wangjiaci Temple (where Miaoya Township Middle School is now located), Baiyun Buddhist Temple, Dashiqing Farmers' Association Shilin Temple in Gaolou Village of Fenglai Township are all engraved in people's hearts.
