historical origin

At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, Wu Laojin passed through this place and saw that the mountain was strange. He thought it was a holy land of Buddhism. So he invited a Guanyin Bodhisattva and built a small simple Guanyin Temple with local materials and stones, wood, and thatch. Later, Wang Guoheng heard that Guanyin Bodhisattva on yangjianpo was a sage, so he built a thatched shed here to worship incense and Buddha all day, and publicized it widely in the nearby areas. With the increasing number of religious believers, they built simple temples. Every year on February 19, June 19 and September 19, during the Guanyin meeting, believers around come to the mountain to worship Buddha and offer incense. The patriarch Chisong of qianlingshan temple came to the temple to give guidance and granted Wang Guoheng the title of "Guoji".

After 1949, the Guizhou Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China sent a working group to Baiyun District to carry out the "five major tasks" and carry out the pilot work of the "land reform" movement. During the bandit riots in 1950, the PLA, a platoon of the regiment, moved to yangjianpo and stationed there. During the day, they went down the mountain to work and at night to defend themselves. The monks cooked tea and cooked rice for the PLA. The PLA protected the safety of temples and monks and made contributions to the PLA's "five major tasks" and the "land reform" work.
