The origin of Qiantong Temple

Qianzi Town, located 25 kilometers southwest of Yanshan County, is the birthplace of Xu Fudong's crossing of Fusang, with a history of more than 2,000 years. The deity of Gionee in Saga, Japan is Xu Fu, and the custom of offering sacrifices once every 50 years continues to this day. Yanshan County, the hometown of thousands of children, has a unique position in the history of Sino-Japanese relations. In 2 10 BC, Xu Fu, an alchemist of the Qin Dynasty, went to the sea at the behest of Qin Shihuang to seek medicine for immortality. He recruited thousands of boys and girls, craftsmen and warriors in Yanshan and its surrounding areas, and after wandering around, he successfully crossed to Fusang, spreading the advanced culture and production technology of the Qin Dynasty to Japan, creating a precedent for Sino-Japanese friendship and cultural exchanges.

There are Du Dongtang, Taishan Hall and Friendship Hall in Qiantong Temple, which records the successful eastward crossing of boys and girls led by Xu Fuyong, an alchemist of the Qin Dynasty, and his influence on the Japanese archipelago. Qiantong Town was called "Rao Anyi" in Shang, Zhou and Warring States Period, which means "its land is rich, which can help the people". Historical Records Zhao Shijia said that in the sixth year of Qin Shihuang (24 1 BC), "Zhao will attack Pangqi and take Rao 'an" refers to this place. This place was called "Qianzi Town" in the Qin Dynasty. At first, the emperor sent Xu Fu to send thousands of boys and girls to the sea to beg for Penglai, and made this city his home, hence the name. "In the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu (202 BC), this county was called Gantong County. In the second year of Xiping in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 5 17), Cangzhou Prefecture was established here.
