The Ürümqi area was originally home to the Tocharians. The oldest known reference to "Urumqi" is in Chinese records dating from the 6th century BC, which describe it as a small trading post and a part of the Kingdom of Yan. It was built by an early ruler named Zhulong (朱龙), who ruled during the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BC). A Buddhist monastery had been established in Ürümqi by 764 AD, probably during reign of Emperor Daizong of Tang; it has since grown into one of China's greatest monasteries with over 13 temples and more than 10 thousand monks at its peak time.
