Yanfu Temple, Buddhist temple in Wuyi County, China.

The temple complex contains multiple buildings arranged along a central axis, including the Shanmen, Hall of Four Heavenly Kings, and Mahavira Hall.

Originally constructed in 937 during the Later Jin dynasty as Futian Temple, it received its current name from Emperor Guangzong during the Southern Song period.

The Mahavira Hall displays Ming dynasty paintings and calligraphy on its inner walls, representing traditional Chinese Buddhist artistic expression.

The temple underwent extensive restoration between 2014 and 2016, making its historical structures accessible to visitors interested in Buddhist architecture.

The Mahavira Hall, rebuilt in 1317, stands as the earliest Yuan dynasty architectural example in the Jiangnan region of China.
