Where is the nun in Dengfeng?

Dengfeng nuns are 9 kilometers west of Dengfeng. It is the only female monk temple in Songshan, Zhongyue, and the earliest existing royal Buddhist monk temple in China. It is understood that during the Northern Wei Dynasty, Yongtai Temple, formerly known as Transshipment Temple, was the place where Wen Chengdi's daughter transported the princess to practice. During the Southern Dynasties, Princess Minglian, the daughter of Liang Wudi, was influenced by Buddhist culture and worshipped Dharma, the ancestor of Zen Buddhism in Shaolin Temple. But because of the princess's identity, it is not convenient to practice with other monks, so Liang Wudi built a Buddhist temple next to Zhuan 'an, and named Minglian Temple after the princess.
