Shuiyue Temple is a place where monks and nuns live, and it is also a place for religious activities. From the depths of the forest came waves of Sanskrit, bells, drums and wooden fish. Shuiyue Temple has a history of more than 300 years. Originally named Kannonji, it was founded in the forty-fourth year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1705). Located on the Yongjiang River of Linjiang Street in the urban area, it was expanded in the fourth year of Yongzheng (AD 1726). Because Antang faces Yongjiang River, the moon and the moon set each other off at night, so it was renamed Shuiyue Temple.
At that time, Shuiyue Temple was a brick-wood structure with three halls, two corridors and one pavilion. The first entrance hall is the living room, with a wooden screen carved with the head of the founder of the pavilion. The second hall is a nun's residence and courtyard. The third entrance hall is for people to burn incense and worship. The ground is covered with brown slate, and the gate is facing Linjiang Street in the community. At that time, the beliefs of "three religions" (cowardice, Buddhism and Taoism) in Nanning were quite popular. On the first and fifteenth day of the first lunar month, some devout believers and Buddhist pilgrims flocked to Shuiyue Temple to pay homage, and the incense flourished. There is a wharf near the Yongjiang River at the back door of buddhist nun, and some pilgrims from afar also admire boating to join in the fun.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Shuiyue Temple was bombed by Japanese planes on August 30th in the 28th year of the Republic of China (1938), and the main hall was destroyed, killing and injuring more than 60 nuns and some asylum seekers. (In the late 1990s, the Nanning Municipal Government built a pavilion and a nun's tomb on Wuxiangling, the new site of Shuiyue Temple in Qingxiu Mountain, facing each other across the river, to commemorate the nuns who died that year and the people who took refuge. ) During the Cultural Revolution, the wind of breaking the four old traditions prevailed, and Shuiyue Temple was the first to bear the brunt and was forced to stop all Buddhist activities. Some nuns were sent to factories for transformation, and some worked in temples to make a living, such as spinning and playing hemp rope. After the downfall of the Gang of Four, Shuiyue Temple resumed its Buddhist activities. 1986 due to urban reconstruction, Yongjiang levee was expanded into a road. In order to implement the religious policy, the municipal government allocated 300,000 yuan to compensate the demolition fee and moved it to the west of Tianchi Lake in Qingxiu Mountain for reconstruction. 1987 started construction, located at the site of Fukenji in the ancient scenic spot. It used to be a treasure trove of feng shui where Buddhist temples gathered. The stone cliff in front of buddhist nun was called "Xie Qing Cliff" in ancient times, and Wang Yangming (known as "Mr. Yangming" in the world) was engraved with "the place where Mr. Yangming passed". There used to be an ancient temple called "Dugu" under the cliff, also called Qingshan Temple. When Shuiyue Temple in Qingxiu Mountain was completed, Zhao Puchu, president of the Chinese Buddhist Association, wrote the name of Shuiyue Temple in person. The new site was built at 1988.
