Yuquan Temple, National Key Buddhist Temple in Dangyang, China.

The temple structures incorporate traditional Chinese architectural elements with cast-iron details throughout the buildings and surrounding courtyards.

Founded in 593 during the Sui Dynasty under the sponsorship of Zhiyi, Prince Yang Guang named the temple Yuquan, before becoming Emperor Yang.

Yuquan Temple maintains its position as a center for Buddhist practices, offering teachings and ceremonies that connect visitors with Chinese spiritual traditions.

The temple grounds welcome visitors daily, with convenient road access from Dangyang city center and parking facilities for both cars and tour buses.

Following extensive damage during the Cultural Revolution, the temple underwent a complete restoration in 2008, funded by Hong Kong businessman Yeung Chun Fan.
