Maitreya Temple is named after the statue of Maitreya Buddha, which coincides with the name of Maitreya city. Therefore, some people suspect that the name of Maitreya city comes from Maitreya Temple, and a "Buddha city" of Maitreya Buddha has evolved. The connection between Maitreya city and Maitreya Buddha is just a kind of good wish of people, but it is totally different from the historical origin. According to the annals of Maitreya Prefecture written by Qianlong of Qing Dynasty, "Maitreya Han belongs to the county of Yao. In the Tang Dynasty, Maitreya, the descendant of motuman, lived there, so it was named Maitreya. At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of mengwanhufu. In the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, it was changed into the general manager of 1000 households. It led 4000 households, including Jishu, Juehe, Bulong and Ayu. In 1290, it was changed to Maitreya state. " In 1770, it was renamed Xiangyan of Mile County. Maitreya is a tribe led by Maitreya, the leader of an ancient minority. Maitreya Temple was built in the sixth year of Tianqi (1626) of Ming Dynasty. According to the newly compiled general annals of Yunnan, "in the sixth year of Tianqi, there were monks like jade in Jinping, who raised money to build Maitreya Temple, and Buddhism prevailed in the prefecture."

Maitreya Temple is an attractive and charming scenic spot. The poem "Maitreya Temple" written by GE Yilong in the Ming Dynasty reads: "a cave embedded in a mountain opens the smoke of dawn. Qingfeiyan water, green trees cover the sky. Secluded and lonely, the monk is pure and popular. I don't know who will be the first to compete between the state and the temple? "His last two sentences have already been concluded, and today's people should not be in suspense.

According to the newly compiled general annals of Yunnan, in the sixth year of the apocalypse, there was a monk in Jinping who raised money to build Maitreya Temple, and Buddhism prevailed in the prefecture. "Maitreya Temple was completed in 1626 A.D. and is located on the beautiful Jinping Mountain in the northern suburb of the city. The temple is divided into the East Hall, the West Hall, the Jade Emperor Hall (upper Hall) and the lower hall. There are ancestral hall, Guanyin tower, Tianfu, hell and so on. It is named because Maitreya Buddha is worshipped as the main Buddha. At that time, there were hundreds of monks, who not only cultivated, but also brewed and pressed oil. There are Temple fields, such as buwangge, Malong, Tuji and other villages, which belong to Buddhist temple villa, and rent hundreds of stones every year. There are four big characters "flying clouds and Flowing Clouds" written by the calligrapher of Tang Dynasty, which are vigorous and fluent. It is said that drinking this water can eliminate diseases and disasters and prolong life. Most of the celebrities, believers, pilgrims and believers of all ages who came here to worship tourists threw copper money into the spring and drank water to pray. The ancients left a good sentence of "qingfeiyan under the water, green trees cover the sky", which is called "Jinping Xieyu". Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty granted three treasures of Temple Administration: gold lacquer tray, sandalwood carved Buddha statue and clean Buddha pearl. For a time, they gained great fame, worshipped good men and women, and poets and poets often came here to have a rest. They either expressed their aspirations or expressed their feelings on the spot, leaving a lot of poems. In the same period of the Qing Dynasty, the temple was destroyed by the war. After many times of reconstruction, repair, to protect the landscape of green water and green mountains. During the period of the Republic of China, there was no choice but to be harassed by war, soldiers and ruffians, monks and nuns scattered, and temples collapsed. In 1958, the East Hall and the West Hall were once used as corridors, but later collapsed in the wind and rain. There are few temples left. From 1987 to 1990, Maitreya Temple (today's Da Zhi Yuan) was first built on the original scale, making the same incense curling in the flourishing age of Daping. Since 1994, the Buddhist community has followed the wishes of the majority of Buddhist believers, and led by the Buddhist Association to raise funds from the people and enterprises to rebuild the temples and statues of Maitreya Temple. In December 1999, the world's largest Maitreya Buddha, 19.99 meters high, was built in the heart of Jinping Mountain. It not only embodies the significance of Buddha in the Buddha, but also marks the charming and kind smile of Jinping Mountain scenic spot after hundreds of years of wind and rain: the big belly can accommodate the world and protect the world forever.

After reconstruction and reconstruction, Maitreya Temple in Jinping Mountain, with the grand four courtyards of Buddha, Dayun, Daxiong and Dazhi, and the unique combination of Maitreya Qiangba Xiang, Maitreya Xianguang Xiang, Maitreya bubao Xiang and Maitreya Tianguan Xiang, has become the grand temple of Maitreya Daochang.

Related Legends

Majestic Jinping, leisurely ancient temple, Maitreya Temple, Maitreya Buddha, Maitreya, the only wonderful place in the world, is rare in southern Yunnan. Since ancient times, there have been many wonderful legends about the cause and effect. It is said that one day during the northern and Southern Dynasties, the wise Tathagata Buddha dreamt that there was a mountain peak in southern China, which was very similar to Maitreya Buddha sitting upright. He sent Maitreya Buddha to patrol all over the world to find this auspicious place for preaching. Maitreya Buddha traveled around the south according to his dream. Day after day, year after year, Maitreya walked all over the mountains and rivers. One day, when he came to a "Maitreya" tribal territory, the very tired Maitreya took a nap under a tree on the opposite side of a road called Jinping Mountain. In the nap, he saw a Buddha who looked like himself coming with a smile. When Maitreya awoke, he suddenly had a meal. He spread his eyes and saw the opposite Jinping Mountain as if he were sitting leisurely. Ho, what a holy land! Maitreya settled down here and preached Buddhist scriptures everywhere to promote Buddhism and educate all living beings. A few years later, Maitreya went to travel all over the world. After he left, the local monks missed him so much that they raised money to build a temple dedicated to Maitreya Buddha and named it Maitreya Temple. There is also a legend that the name of the county originated from the name of Buddha. However, the name of Maitreya county does not come from Buddhism, but from the name of ancient tribal leaders. According to records, in the Tang Dynasty, the county is located in badian and bulongdian areas of Nanzhao state. The leader's name is Maitreya, so his department is called Maitreya department. In the seventh year of Yuan Xianzong (1257), Maitreya was attached to the yuan regime. In the twelfth year of Yuan Dynasty (1275), Maitreya was set up here. In the 27th year of Yuan Dynasty (1290), Maitreya was changed into a state, which was called Maitreya Prefecture. In the 35th year of Qianlong (1770) of Qing Dynasty, Maitreya was changed into Maitreya county. In 2013, with the approval of the State Council, Maitreya county was abolished and Maitreya city was set up at the county level. However, perhaps due to natural forces and Providence, Buddhism flourished on this land when Maitreya Temple was built in Jinping Mountain. According to Buddhism, all things are born by reason of fate
