Baihe Daxian Temple, Buddhist temple in Baihe District, Tainan City, Taiwan.

Located at an elevation with mountain views, Daxian Temple includes a main hall, pavilions, artificial ponds, and residential quarters for Buddhist monks.

Established in 1701 by Zen Master Canche, the temple underwent major reconstruction in 1915 following architectural patterns from Todaiji Temple in Nara, Japan.

The main hall contains detailed paintings and wood carvings by prominent Taiwanese artists, including the Great Compassion Mantra mural by Pan Li-shui.

The temple opens daily from 7:00 to 17:00, offering free admission and a large parking lot for visitors at No.1, Yanqian, Baihe District.

The temple structure combines Chinese supporting elements with Japanese-style tile roofing, creating an architectural fusion specific to Taiwan's religious heritage.
