Buddhist temples have a long history and have experienced vicissitudes. According to the existing Jinhua local chronicles and county records, the temple was originally named "Song Chi Temple" and was built by Daoqiong, a monk, in the sixth year of the Southern Dynasties in Datong, Liang Wudi (AD 540). It is about the same period as the famous Xinchang Buddhist Temple in Zhejiang. According to "Wanli (Jinhua Local Chronicles)", monk Daoqiong stopped in the south of the mountain, heard the voice of praise, climbed the rock, and saw a senior sister carved into a stone Buddha, with a huge capacity, and was a senior six. In Guangxu {Biography of Wen Yi Jinshi in Jinhua County), it is mentioned that Wang Xiangzhi (a native of Jinhua in Song Dynasty) planted a Song Chi Temple Monument in his book (the victory on the land was recorded), which recorded that Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty hung his arch for four years (688) (the monument was lost); In the second year of the northern song dynasty (96 1), a monument was planted in front of the temple. There is a book engraved on the tablet (Record of Rebuilding Xiyan Buddhist Temple). Liu Yue wrote an article, orally revised the book, and sealed it (this tablet has already disappeared). It is speculated that the original name of the Great Buddha Temple was "Song Chi Temple", and it was renamed the Poetry Buddha Temple from the middle of Tang Dynasty to the year of Stegosaurus in the Northern Song Dynasty.
