Wolong Temple, National Key Buddhist Temple in Beilin District, China

Located on Baishulin Street, Wolong Temple features three distinct courtyards and multiple halls dedicated to Buddhist worship and meditation practices.

Built during the Han Dynasty between 168-189 AD, the temple received its current name during the Song Dynasty reign of Taizong from 976-997.

The temple maintains a collection of Buddhist scriptures and hosts traditional ceremonies in its main halls, including Tian Wang Dian and DaXiong Baodian.

The temple complex contains several meditation rooms and halls where visitors can observe Buddhist rituals and architectural elements of traditional Chinese design.

Empress Dowager Cixi contributed 1,000 silver taels for reconstruction and established a stone tablet with her personal inscription in 1900.
