In the heyday of history, there were 100 monks. In November 1986, Dazi County People's Government approved the restoration and opening up. The temple covers an area of about 15.27 mu, with a construction area of 2343.8 cubic meters. There are 33 monks in the temple. There are six armed Buddha in the temple. It is said that "if you go to Gandan Temple instead of Sanga temple, it means that there is no perfection in the pilgrimage to Buddha", that is to say, only half of the path of practice has been taken. In recent years, more and more tourists come to visit Archaeology and worship Buddha.
