Introduction to Luohan Temple: Luohan Temple, formerly known as Zhiping Temple, was built during the Zhiping Period of the Northern Song Dynasty (1064-1067). The temple was built because of Luohan Cave. In the 17th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1752), due to the collapse of the front hall, the Dragon God Temple was rebuilt; later it was also called Luohan Temple and Ancient Buddha Rock. In the eleventh year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1885), Monk Longfa rebuilt the temple and renamed it Luohan Temple.
