Guangren Temple, Tibetan Buddhist temple in Lianhu District, China
The temple features traditional Chinese architecture with several halls arranged along a central axis, including the Shanmen entrance, Guanyin Hall, and Hufa Jingang Hall.
Emperor Kangxi established Guangren Temple in 1705 during the Qing dynasty to accommodate Tibetan Buddhist leaders who traveled to Beijing for imperial audiences.
The Buddhist Texts Library contains 6,600 volumes of Prajnaparamita sutras, granted by Emperor Kangxi as part of the temple's collection of religious manuscripts.
Located near Xi'an's City Wall, the temple welcomes visitors from 8:00 to 17:30 with free admission and accessibility through local buses or Metro Line 1.
The temple houses a remarkable statue of the Thousand Handed and Eyed Guanyin in its main hall, surrounded by sculptures of Maitreya Buddha and Four Heavenly Kings.
