History

Originally a hermitage, it was converted into a temple during the Southern Qí 南齊 (479-502) and it was given the name Dàcí Temple 大慈寺. During the Zhēnguān 貞觀 years of the Táng 唐 (627-649), the name was changed to Pòshān Temple 破山寺. It received its current name from Emperor Yìzōng 懿宗 in 869 (Xiántōng 咸通 9).
