Huishan Temple, Buddhist temple in Dengfeng, China.

The temple features traditional architectural elements with halls and shrines spread across 68.2 hectares of mountainous terrain near Mount Songshan.

The Mahavira Hall, built during the Yuan Dynasty, demonstrates architectural innovation through its design without central columns to create an open altar space.

The temple complex serves as a center for Buddhist learning where monks study ancient texts and practice traditional meditation techniques.

Located within the Historic Monuments of Dengfeng complex, visitors can combine their temple visit with exploration of nearby Han Que Gates and mountain trails.

The temple maintains lower visitor numbers compared to Shaolin Temple, allowing for an examination of Yuan Dynasty Buddhist architecture without large crowds.
