Zunsheng Temple, Buddhist temple in Wutai County, China

The temple extends over 32,300 square meters of land, featuring 350 halls and more than 390 Buddhist statues arranged around a central axis.

Founded during the Tang dynasty as Shan Zhu Ge Yuan, the temple underwent multiple reconstructions during the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties before receiving its current name.

The Dharani Sutra collection within the temple serves as a significant resource for Buddhist scholars and practitioners studying ancient religious texts.

Located 20 kilometers northeast of Wutai County seat, the temple contains two main structures: the elevated Daxiong Palace and the brick-built Wuliang Palace.

The temple stands as the second largest Buddhist facility in Mount Wutai, incorporating architectural elements from the Republic of China period.
