It formed an aspect of the long-standing spiritual civilization of the Chinese nation.

Yuelu Academy is located at the foot of Yuelu Mountain on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River. It was built with government donations in the 9th year of Kaibao (976 AD) by Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty. It has a history of 1,024 years, so it is known as the "Millennium Academy". The academy was large in scale, with more than a thousand students in its heyday, so it was called "Xiaoxiangzhusi", almost as famous as the place where Confucius gave lectures in his hometown. Lushan Temple is hidden among the ancient trees on the mountainside of Yuelu Mountain. Here, "the sheep's intestines are dangerous because of the stone pedaling, the dark road of Yunmen hangs, the green cover is still in the middle of the mountain, and the sound of clear springs is heard in thousands of gorges." The stone paths are beautiful and the ancient trees are towering. This temple was built in the fourth year of Taishi in the Western Jin Dynasty. Most of the previous abbots were eminent monks. The famous poet Du Fu once described the grand occasion of people burning incense and paying homage to Buddha in a poem titled "Qingming": "It is a prosperous day in Changsha. Thousands of people came out, with green willows and bright eyebrows on the ferry, and red hooves biting their knees in competition for the road. They all wanted to visit Xiangxi Temple, and all the generals also came from the army." (Xiangxi Temple is Lushan Temple). Even though thousands of years have passed and many vicissitudes have gone through, Changsha people are no longer like those who went there by the thousands to pay incense and worship Buddha. However, in the temple there are still cigarettes and ducks all year round, and the sound of bells, chimes and wooden fish is endless.
