Lukang Nanjing Temple, Buddhist temple in Changhua City, Taiwan
The temple covers 9,600 square feet with four structures including the Main Gate, Hall of Five Gates, Main Hall, and Rear Hall with two yards.
The temple moved to its current location in 1786 near the historic port canal, which functioned as an important trade route during that period.
The temple contains a shrine dedicated to Guanyin, the bodhisattva of mercy, where Buddhist followers regularly present incense offerings at the main hall entrance.
The temple underwent extensive reconstruction efforts until 2008 following earthquake damage in 1999, with ongoing maintenance programs by the Bureau of Cultural Heritage.
The temple features Taiwan's largest and oldest caisson ceiling, constructed without nails and decorated with a dragon painting for sound enhancement during performances.
