Before Buddhism was introduced into China, there were no temples. Because Buddhism is convenient and diverse, India did not have it when the Buddha was alive. As long as there is a big place, it can accommodate the Buddha. The scripture says 1250 people, but it is actually 1255 people, and even the Buddha is 1256 people. When Buddhism spread to China, there was a temple.

Buddhism was introduced into China in the Han Dynasty. At that time, the "temple" was an official position, directly subordinate to the official position of a unit below the emperor; The first-level unit below the Prime Minister is called the Ministry, and there are six departments below the Prime Minister. The Ministry is called Shangshu, and the second is called Assistant Minister. The official head below the emperor is called Qing.
