In the southern suburb of Jianyang City, there is Shengde Temple, which was founded in the Qianfu period of Tang Dynasty (874-879 AD). There is a pagoda in the temple, formerly known as Shengyin Pagoda, because the pagoda body is painted with gray powder and white, so it is called the White Pagoda. The locals also call Shengde Temple Baita Temple, which was destroyed in the early years. The pagoda was built in Song Ningzong's time, with funds raised by Zhang Fang, a professor of Jianzhou and the monk Huizu of Shengde Temple. In the early 1990s, the state allocated funds to repair the White Pagoda. Today, with the pagoda as the main body, the White Pagoda Garden has been built, with a new cultural relics showroom, a forest of steles, and a grass house tea garden.
