The place where my grandma was a monk! I've been in and out here since I was a child. Since Grandma is in charge of the sales department, there are often delicious cakes and biscuits to taste! This is where I played in my childhood?

When I visited Pingtung before, after eating soup and some snacks nearby, I walked around as a walk. At that time, I walked to this Dongshan Temple. The lanterns inside were very beautiful and the landscape was very beautiful. Beautiful, the reflection is particularly beautiful. Then I found out on the Internet that Dongshan Zen Temple was founded in June of the 13th year of the Republic of China (1924). It was donated by a believer Lin Qingyun and was originally named "Pingtung Buddhism Rinzai School" Monk Donghai Yicheng was the first resident. In the third year of the Showa era (1928), monk Chuanjing was appointed as the second director. In March of the year of the Republic of China (1929), the temple was located in the east of Banping Mountain. It was renamed "Dongshan Zen Temple". In the thirty-fourth year of the Republic of China (1945), after Taiwan's restoration, the Master Yuanrong, who was a monk at Longhu Temple in Dagangshan, was invited to be the first abbot after the restoration. At that time, Longhu Temple was stationed due to Japanese military expropriation, and the monks and lay people were driven down the mountain and scattered in Baihe Daxian Temple and Xinchaofeng Temple. Yuanrong Master moved to Daxian Temple. After the Master arrived at Dongshan Temple, he established clear rules and assigned positions, and everything was carried out according to the Buddhist jungle system. After that, he started hardware construction again. He first rebuilt the squatters on both sides to improve the resident living environment. The squatters are spacious and there are many rooms, which can accommodate more than 100 people. Then the Daxiong Hall was rebuilt. After completion, it was majestic and majestic, and continued to beautify the environment. So far, Dongshan Zen Temple has become a pure and solemn Taoist temple and the first garden Buddhist temple in Kunnan.
