Introduction to the back door of the temple: The temple where Jinyang Xishan Giant Buddha is located was originally the Dazhuangyan Temple built in the Eastern Wei Dynasty. In the second year of Tianbao in the Northern Qi Dynasty (551), Gao Yang bestowed the title of "Kaihua", also known as the Kaihua Temple. He also carved Buddha statues on the mountain and built the upper and lower temples, which were called the "Two Dazhuangyan Grottoes Temples". It can be seen that the "Xishan Giant Buddha" was originally Appears as a "grotto" in the upper temple. Nowadays, a new Buddhist temple has been erected at the old site of Kaihua Temple, and the Kaihua Temple restored by Li Yuan in the Tang Dynasty has long been lost in the rolling history of downtown Taiyuan.
