TouCheng ShiGuanYin Temple, Chinese temple in Toucheng, Taiwan
The temple features numerous Buddha statues and detailed stone carvings across multiple buildings set against mountainous surroundings at an elevation of 700 meters.
The temple originated in the 1820s as a natural cave dedicated to Guanyin, and subsequent expansions transformed it into a major religious complex.
The temple houses deities from both Buddhist and Taoist traditions, demonstrating the religious diversity and spiritual practices of Taiwanese society.
Visitors reach the temple via the Shiguanyin Trail, part of the Taoyuan Valley Trail system, which extends 14.6 kilometers through varied terrain.
The temple contains a specific alcove dedicated to Huye, the tiger god, positioned alongside Tudigong, creating an unusual pairing of divine figures.
