白(bai)龍(long)寺(si)位于杭州市蕭山區瓜瀝鎮(zhen)東恩村航塢山巔(dian)。始建于北宋(song)熙寧(ning)年(1066-1070)間。傳說龍(long)光法(fa)師(shi)云游(you)此山,見嶺上有白(bai)龍(long),遂結(jie)茅廬其上。南宋(song)紹(shao)興三(san)年(1133)募創(chuang)寺(si)宇,供觀音、白(bai)龍(long)像,故(gu)名(ming)"白(bai)龍(long)寺(si)"。
2014年2月1日(農歷(li)甲午(wu)年正月初二(er))凌晨(chen),航塢山頂的白(bai)龍寺部分被燒(shao)了(le),而毀(hui)掉(diao)的正是作為文物保護(hu)單(dan)位最(zui)核心的明代建筑。
