According to legend, the Han emperor had a dream in which the Buddha appeared before him. So arresting was the dream that he ordered his soldiers to travel to find what had caused his vision. They came upon traveling Buddhist monks who carried pictures of Buddha on their white horses. When they were taken back to the palace, the emperor saw the picture of Buddha and knew this was the man he had saw in his dreams. At this point, he asked the monks to remain there and translate the Buddhist texts. He built them a temple (the White Horse Temple) in which to do so.
