Huangshi Temple is said to be the place where Mr. Huangshi studied the art of war. He built his own shed, accompanied by a cool breeze and a clear spring, and wild vegetables were eaten by wild fruits. In front of the temple, the white crane is independent, and the tiger guards the front of the temple. The golden python lurks in the temple. Mr. Huang was conscientious and absorbed, and explained Sun Tzu's art of war vividly. Later, I left the temple to travel and met Sean from the State of Qin. I know that Zhang is a talented person, so I teach him the art of war, which can help Liu Bangxing Han. Liu bang won the world and built the Han dynasty. When Lv Hou usurped and seized power, Han Xin was punished. Zhang Liang, who lived in Liu Hou, the founding assistant minister of the Western Han Dynasty, felt that political affairs were sinister, so he resigned and returned to Huangshi Maoan, tearing down the thatched shed and building a temple to practice in seclusion, thus extending the life of Huangshi Maoan to this day.
After thousands of years of vicissitudes, Huangshi Temple was preserved after several repairs. It was approved by the state as a place for Buddhist activities, which facilitated the gathering of believers from all sides and left many eternal stories. The famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi wrote an inscription "Taihe Yuan Qi" in front of Laojun Hall. 1994, Zhao Puchu, Vice Chairman of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and President of Chinese Buddhist Association, wrote an inscription "Huangshi Temple" in front of the temple. On June 8, 2006, it was designated as a key cultural relic protection unit by the Henan provincial government, covering an area of about 10000 square meters. 20 15, reported for approval to expand the related facilities of the temple, covering an area of about 35 mu, and increasing the service facilities for pilgrims; The back hillside covers an area of more than 50 mu, and there are towers and sightseeing pavilions, which provide sightseeing and leisure conditions for promoting Buddhism and Taoism, serving pilgrims and benefiting neighbors.
The existing temples in the temple are: the temple in front of the temple is dedicated to Maitreya Buddha and the four heavenly kings, and the drum is hung on the right under the back eaves, and the clock is hung on the left, day after day, and the morning bell is ringing at dusk. In the middle of the compound is the Hall of the Great Hero, which is the main part of the temple and dedicated to the Buddha statue. There are five Chinese pine and cypress trees in the hospital, which are over 300 years old. What is particularly important to say here is that the left side of the back wall of the main hall has collapsed because of the age, and adobe and bricks are piled up at the foot of the wall. In order to restore the original state and protect the cultural relics, it was reported to the county cultural relics management office and repaired with the funds of the provincial government. Construction started on September 15, which is the first stage of the temple restoration and expansion plan. On the right side of the courtyard is guanyin temple, with three brick structures, which was built in the late Qing Dynasty. On the left is the Tibetan Bodhisattva Hall, with four brick structures. Going south, the last courtyard has 12 rooms, which are divided into construction project department and temple design room. The purlin is dedicated to the old gentleman on the throne. Once he gasified and cleaned up, he let go of his power.
