With a cultural history spanning more than 2,000 years, Mount Fanjing is a renowned mountain in Southwest China. As early as the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, it was part of the "Qianzhong" region under the State of Chu; it later became "Qianzhong Commandery" during the Qin Dynasty and "Wuling Commandery" during the Han Dynasty. Throughout subsequent history, it has been revered as a sacred, divine mountain by the "Wuling Man" (the indigenous peoples of the Wuling region). Buddhism took root on Mount Fanjing during the Tang Dynasty and flourished during the Ming Dynasty. An imperial stele erected during the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty hails Mount Fanjing as the "progenitor of all famous mountains under heaven"—a site that "stands firm as the heavens and earth, enduring through the ages in unparalleled prominence."
