Cheung Shan Monastery, Buddhist temple in Ping Che, Hong Kong.

Cheung Shan Monastery is a two-hall Buddhist temple in Ping Che, Fanling, rebuilt in 1868 in the Qing dynasty Tongzhi era. The rear hall stands about one metre above the front hall, giving the building a stepped section. It is a declared monument.

Built in 1789 by villages of the Ta Kwu Ling area, the temple was first named Cheung Shan Nunnery and housed Sakyamuni Buddha, Guanyin and Ksitigarbha. The path outside led to Sha Tau Kok, so the nunnery served travellers with tea and rest. It was rebuilt in 1868 in its present two-hall form and became a declared monument in 1998.

The halls display statues honoring Buddha and other deities that visitors can see when walking through. These figures shape how the space functions as a place of worship and reflection.

The temple is open most days but closes during midday hours, allowing time to visit without crowds. Visitors should check opening times before going, particularly around major holidays when access may change.

The temple stands where a mountain path once led travellers toward Sha Tau Kok, and it supplied them with tea and water as a rest stop. The villages of the Ta Kwu Ling area built it jointly in 1789, when it was called Cheung Shan Nunnery and housed Sakyamuni Buddha, Guanyin and Ksitigarbha.
