Guangji Temple, Buddhist temple in Xicheng District, Beijing, China

Guangji Temple at 25 Inner Fuchengmen Street covers 35 mu and faces south. Its three parallel axes follow the Ming layout: the central axis runs from the gate with its yellow-glazed roof through the Bell and Drum Towers, Heavenly King Hall, Mahavira Hall, Yuantong Hall and the two-storey Duobao Hall and Relic Pavilion. The west courtyard holds a white marble ordination platform from 1698.

The temple was established during the Jin dynasty and underwent major rebuilding during the Ming period. These two phases shaped the structure that visitors see today.

The temple has housed the Buddhist Association of China since its founding in 1953, and the current abbot is Shi Yanjue. In 1925 the monk Taixu organized the Chinese Buddhist Federation headquarters here to prepare candidates for that November's East Asian Buddhism Conference. The name Guangji was bestowed by the Chenghua Emperor in 1466.

The temple faces south on inner Fuchengmen Street at No. 25, with the gate opening onto the central axis of four successive halls. The grounds cover 35 mu, so allow time to walk the central, west and east routes. The white marble ordination platform of 1698 stands in the northwest corner.

The temple houses a substantial library collection including rare religious texts from different historical periods and written in multiple languages. This makes it a center for study and religious scholarship as well as worship.
