In order to promote Buddhism, Master Jianzhen accepted the invitation of Japanese monks and happily led the monks to Dongdu Japan. He was not afraid of hardships, five times Dongdu failed, but he was not discouraged, and finally arrived in Japan at the age of 66, blind in Tianbao 12 years (753), and realized his wish.

Yangzhou 2 Daming Temple 3 Daming Temple on the scenery, can not be compared with the Slender West Lake, but you can climb the tower to see the panoramic view of the Slender West Lake. Tourists who do not burn incense and worship Buddha go to Daming Temple mainly to see the monks of Jianzhen and learn about the legends of Jianzhen Dongdu Japan. There are many young monks there, and they should also practice the practice of the pilgrims. Its memorial building is a bit like a Kyoto temple.

In Daming Temple, there is a tower of the town temple - Qiling Tower, which was built more than 1,300 years ago. There are two Tang-style building bell towers and drum towers in front of the tower. In ancient times, the clock was reported by the morning bell and the evening drum. People know the hour through different bells and drums, and how many days are more. This is not many Tang-style buildings in our south of the Yangtze River, which promotes traditional Chinese culture.

The scenery is pleasant and the cultural heritage is deep. The memorial hall of Master Jianzhen is worth admiring, and this place is a three-pointed place. The designer is Mr. Liang Sicheng, the inscription is Mr. Guo Moruo, and the inscription is Mr. Zhao Puchu. Now, Master Nebula has opened Yangzhou pulpit here.
