Taichung Bao Jue Buddhist Temple, Buddhist temple in North District, Taichung, Taiwan

The Bao Jue Temple features a Japanese-style courtyard layout with a grand main hall topped by traditional black roof tiles and red brick walls.

Established in 1927 under the guidance of Master Miao Chan, the temple became part of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism's Myoshin-ji branch.

The temple houses three main Buddha statues: Shakyamuni, Medicine Buddha, and Amitabha Buddha, reflecting the temple's connection to multiple Buddhist traditions.

The temple complex includes a friendship bell tower, a peace memorial pavilion, and a merit hall, offering visitors multiple spaces for meditation and worship.

A seven-story golden Maitreya Buddha statue stands within the temple grounds, accompanied by a thousand-pound bell donated by Japanese supporters.
