Nanhua Temple was first built in the first year of the Tianjian period of Emperor Liang Wu in the Southern and Northern Dynasties (502 AD), and has a history of more than 1480 years. For a thousand years, Nanhua Temple has been famous for its association with the sixth patriarch. The Sixth Patriarch Huineng taught Zen here for 37 years, with 43 enlightened disciples spreading the teachings throughout the country, later forming the five branches of Linji in Hebei, Xiyang in Hunan, Caodong in Jiangxi, Yunmen in Guangdong, and Fayan in Nanjing. Linji and Caodong Zen schools became popular in Japan, while Yunmen and Linji spread even further to Europe and America. Therefore, Nanhua Temple is known as the "ancestral temple".
