  "Nanning Confucius Temple was built during the Northern Song Dynasty (1049-1054). It was originally in the city of Cangximenwaisha City (near the foot of the water tower on Xinhua Street), and the Southern Song Dynasty Baoqing moved to Nanning Hotel in three years (1227). Nanning Confucius Temple has been rebuilt three times from the beginning of the Republic of China. Since the end of Qing Dynasty, it has gradually poured out, and only Dacheng Palace has been left. In 1982, due to the expansion of Nanning Hotel, the old Confucian Temple was finally demolished. The building materials removed were preserved in the Guangxi Exhibition Hall. In May 2007, the main project of the relocation of Nanning Confucian Temple was started, and the relocation was completed on January 30, 2011, which took more than three years. The newly completed Confucian Temple is one of the largest Confucian Temples in Guangxi and even Lingnan. "
