In 615 A.D., the first Buddhist temple of the sect was established in today's Jinghong City, and it was later renamed "Baji Temple".
In the twelfth year of the Tang Dynasty, the Burmese Jingdong Tusi sent the bhikshu Sivisu Tanma Shuna to Jinghong to preach Buddhism, and since then, Southern Buddhism has developed in Xishuangbanna.
