Guishan Lingyun Temple, Taoist temple in Guishan District, Taiwan.

The temple features an 18-meter wooden statue of Xuantian deity surrounded by numerous life-sized figures representing deities from Taoism and Taiwanese folk religion.

Built in 1992 within an industrial area of Taoyuan's Guishan District, the temple stands on a mountain that forms a natural border between Taoyuan and New Taipei City.

The temple integrates multiple spiritual traditions by displaying statues of Taoist deities, folk religion figures, and a preserved statue of former President Chiang Kai-shek.

The temple remains open 24 hours daily, with access requiring personal transportation as public bus services to the location are limited.

The temple houses the mummified body of Master Kaishan, preserved in a glass case following his intentional mummification process before his death in 1998.
