Xingjiao Temple, Buddhist temple in Chang'an District, Xi'an, China.
The temple grounds contain three brick pagodas, with the central structure housing the remains of the Buddhist master Xuanzang from the Tang Dynasty.
Established in 669 CE during the Tang Dynasty, the temple underwent reconstruction in the Republican era after a fire destroyed its buildings in the Qing period.
The temple preserves thousands of Buddhist scriptures from different dynasties in its Sutra-Keeping Pavilion, reflecting centuries of religious documentation.
Located 20 kilometers southeast of Xi'an on Shaoling plateau, the temple complex includes a Devajara Hall featuring a 3.2-meter bronze statue of Sakyamuni.
The central pagoda contains the ashes of Xuanzang, the renowned monk who traveled to India and translated numerous Buddhist texts into Chinese.
