Mianyang, you really know how to have a good time! | Baiyi An, free admission, free parking

Address: No. 4 Nanta Road, Peicheng District, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province The reason for the relocation of Baiyi An to Nanshan: "Three temples within the city, five temples beyond." Baiyi An was a famous temple in Mianzhou city, probably built during the middle period of the Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty (around 1620), located at the intersection of Wei Sheng Alley and Shuncheng Street. A bronze statue of Guanyin three feet high and a statue of Weituo four feet high were once unearthed there. Baiyi An was roughly destroyed after the Jiaqing era of the Qing Dynasty, as at this time, a local named Sun Wenhuan had written the 'Inscription for the Restoration of Baiyi An'. In the 28th year of the Republic of China (1939), the new South Gate was constructed, occupying the site of Baiyi An; in the early 1990s, the southern section of Hongxing Street was renovated and the street was widened, making it impossible to restore Baiyi An at its original location. Although there are many temples in Mianyang, there were no convents. The earliest advocate for the construction of Baiyi An was Master Guoren of Shengshui Temple, with lay Buddhists Wang Zejia, Miao Zhifang, and others actively supporting; Ren Shan Shi (86 years old) suggested going to Chengdu to find his disciples Changguo, Changhui, Changdu, and Changxiu to take charge; in June 1992, lay Buddhists Chen Xiugu and Zhou Huifang went to Wenshu Monastery to invite Changguo (a nun), a senior disciple studying Buddhism at Daotang, to Mianyang; a construction team was formed by Yin Changyan, Changguo, and three others, using the old site of the Ten Sages Hall on the hillside of the original Nanshan Temple to rebuild Baiyi An; with the opening of the First Ring Road, the temple gate is right by the road, and the scale of the construction grew larger and larger.
