Daci Temple, Buddhist temple in Jinjiang District, Chengdu, China.

The temple features multiple halls including Maitreya Hall, Avalokitesvara Hall, Daxiong Hall, and Shuofa Hall, with traditional Chinese architectural elements throughout the complex.

Founded in 1867, the temple gained prominence when monk Xuan Zang studied there for five years in 622 before returning to Chang'an to continue his Buddhist practice.

The temple maintains active Buddhist practices with daily ceremonies, meditation sessions, and a vegetarian restaurant that serves traditional temple cuisine to visitors.

Located at 23 Dacisi Road, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 8:00 to 17:30 without entrance fees and requires approximately one hour for a complete visit.

The temple stands as a traditional Buddhist sanctuary surrounded by modern commercial developments, including the adjacent Sino-Ocean Taikoo Li shopping complex.
