Dajue Jing She was a private Zen monastery dedicated by Hua Zhihong. It was built in 1923. During the War of Resistance against Japan, when Guizhou established its first radio station, the ground floor of the scripture depository and the right-side building were rented out as offices and broadcasting studios. As a result, the street where the retreat is located came to be called Radio Street. After the liberation of Guiyang, Dajue Jing She came under the management of the municipal government. The Municipal Education Bureau and the Cultural Bureau were once housed in various rooms within the side buildings. In the 1960s, the government replaced the original green tiles with glazed tiles and painted them ochre.
On May 20, 1981, the Guiyang Revolutionary Committee designated Dajue Jing She as a municipal cultural relics protection unit.
