Introduction to the origin of Wanfo Lake:
According to historical records, Wanfo Lake was called "Nanxueze" in ancient times, with a history of more than 1,411 years. According to legend, during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (314-421 AD), an ancient temple named Xuyun Temple in Shandong was built in this area. Because the temple is located in a low-lying and humid place, there is plenty of water, which makes a small lake formed around the temple, which is called "South Cave Ze".
In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Nanxueze area gradually developed into a Zen jungle area, and attracted a large number of Buddhist monks to practice. It is said that the Buddhist activities here are very active, the temples are packed and there are many monks, which makes the temples and lakes gradually known as "Wanfo Lake". This name also symbolizes that a large number of Buddha statues and Buddhist cultural relics are enshrined in temples around the lake.
