What travelers say:

When you arrive in Fengyang, you can't leave Zhu Yuanxuan's topic. This is the temple where he left his family beforehand. Longxing Temple is located at the foot of the Rijing Peak of Phoenix Mountain in Fengyang County, Anhui Province. It was built by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the 16th year of Hongwu (1383 AD). It is a royal temple of the Ming Dynasty. In 1981, it was listed as a key cultural relics protection unit in Anhui Province. Longxing Temple is a key open temple in the country and is rated as a national AAA-level scenic spot. Longxing Temple was formerly known as Yuhuang Temple, and the history of Yuhuang Temple was built as early as the Northern Song Dynasty. During the Song Jin War, it was destroyed by the Jin people and then repaired. The temple was destroyed in the Song and Meng Wars, and the monks fled to escape from the army. In the Yuan Dynasty, a monk who fled from the temple returned to the old site of the temple and rebuilt the temple. In the four years of the Yuan to the Zheng (1344), Zhu Yuanxuan, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was a monk at the temple. The 12 years from the Yuan Dynasty to the Zheng 12 years (1352) were destroyed in the army and fire. In the 16 years of Hongwu (1383), Zhu Yuanxuan was rebuilt in the imperial temple. Because the former site of the imperial temple was too close to the imperial tomb, it was inconvenient to burn it, so it was rebuilt in a different place. Hongwu was completed in September 16, and Zhu Yuanxuan gave the name "Longxing Temple"
