Origin of place names

As for the name of Pu temple, there is a beautiful local legend. A long time ago, Li Yun, one of the eight immortals, traveled all over the world and came to the bachijiang River, a tributary of the Yongjiang river. He threw down the gourd and drank in the clear spring. He called Shuang repeatedly! After that, a gourd of clear spring was filled and left. Since then, the Yongjiang river no longer flows directly here, and the river water flows eastward only around Huludao.
Later, under several big banyan trees on the other side of Huludao, a gray haired and kind-hearted old woman set up a stand to sell porridge. The old woman is kind and warm-hearted. No matter whether the passers-by has money or not, she will always send a bowl of hot porridge to drink. Miraculously, after eating the porridge of the old lady, people can not only satisfy their hunger and thirst, but also eliminate their pain and build up their health. This is the origin of the so-called "Congfu" (homonymous with the vernacular "blessing").
People don't know where the old lady comes from or what her name is. They just call her "flower granny" because she loves flowers on her head. Where Huapo sells porridge, more and more people live together. In memory of her, later generations built a small temple for her - "Huapo Temple" (the "five saints Palace" mentioned earlier). Huapo temple is full of incense, and people come from all over the world to offer incense. There is a Polder town here. Huapo is the ancestor of this polder town. In order to remember her, people call the town "Po Temple"; some people say that Huapo temple is formed by floating wood Bodhisattvas, that is, "Fu Temple", and because of the local accent "Fu" for "Pu", over time, it is called "Pu Temple". < br > The Legend of "Huapo porridge" not only makes the origin of Pumiao town well founded, but also makes Huapo Temple (wusheng Palace) a well-known cultural relic protection unit in the autonomous region. From the Pumiao Kaiwei commemoration ceremony, every year there is a "get a bowl of porridge" in Pumiao, Huapo festival will also hold float parade, often cruise all day, and Huapo Festival, Huapo Temple memorial is the old woman, a few days before and after Huapo Festival, people can free in order to promote the spirit of benevolence. It is said that in the future, Huapo festival will be a grand festival to be celebrated every year.
