In the fourth year of Zhonghe reign of Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty (884), it was named Xingjiao Temple. It was called Qingliang Temple in the early Ming Dynasty and is still in use today. The temple was originally quite large in scale, and its buildings were destroyed and rebuilt many times. The Buddhist hall was built in the late Qing Dynasty.
