Hsinchu Jinshan Temple, Chinese temple in East District, Hsinchu City, Taiwan
The temple complex features a central hall with three sections and protective wings on both sides, built using traditional earthen bricks and stone foundations.
Established in 1853 as Xianlian Temple, the structure underwent multiple name changes before becoming Jinshan Temple during Japanese colonial rule in 1896.
The main shrine contains a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva created in 1986, accompanied by eighteen Arhat figures following Taiwanese religious traditions.
The temple, located at 201 Jinshan Road, remains open to visitors who can observe religious ceremonies and architectural details from different historical periods.
Between 1945 and 1962, the temple building served as a prison facility before its designation as a county monument in 1985.
