英文摘要：

Historical facts have proved that the ancient Chinese Urban-Buddhism not only provided a place for religious activities, but also a center for culture transmission. In a sense, it also played the role of public space for ancient civic cultural life. Since modem times, in the context of modernity, the cultural function of Urban-Buddhism has undergone significant changes in its contents and features. Nevertheless, relying on the special wisdom of Buddhism, exploring the benefits of Buddhist wisdom for people＇s spiritual life of today, and giving full play to the cultural function of contemporary Urban-Buddhism, will help to guide people＇s lives in modem cities, and help ethic construction, soul purification and spiritual elevation, thereby promoting a harmonious development of the society and the people.
