Introduction to the Brahma Temple: The Brahma Temple is located on the rooftop and is the highest point of the front mountain. The temple was first built in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. It was completed in the Tang Dynasty and expanded in the Qing Dynasty. However, due to wars and banditry, it fell into disrepair. At the beginning of liberation, almost all the original temples were destroyed, leaving only a Guanyin Temple and more than 20 houses. In the spring of 1989, Master Jingtian, the 45th generation descendant of the Rinzai Sect of Zen Buddhism, led his disciples to rebuild Brahma Temple here. In 1996, the Main Hall was completed. The massive Wenchuan earthquake on May 12, 2008 caused serious damage to the temple. The existing temple was rebuilt from 2010 to 2011.
The rebuilt Brahma Temple is built on the mountain and has a strong royal architectural style of the Tang Dynasty, with a construction area of 2894 square meters. The left and right symmetrical design is well-proportioned vertically and is divided into three roads: the middle road is the Tianwang Hall, the Mahavira Hall, the Guanyin Hall, and the Sutra Tower; the left road is the Drum Tower, Zhaitang, and dormitories; the right road is the bell tower and the abbot's room.
According to legend, Brahma Temple was the place where Wu Zetian worshiped Buddha when she was a child. It was also the place where Wang Zhuangyuan in the Tang Dynasty and Taoist priests in the Qing Dynasty practiced Taoism and became immortals. It is known as the "Golden Summit of Shumen". The scenery here is beautiful and the summer is cool. People often come here to escape the summer heat every year. On February 19th, June 19th and September 19th of the lunar calendar, there is an endless stream of people coming here to attend temple fairs and worship Buddha.
