Shangfeng Temple, National Key Buddhist temple in Nanyue District of Hengyang, China.
Located on Mount Heng, Shangfeng Temple features a series of halls decorated with iron statues and traditional Chinese architectural elements throughout its grounds.
Originally established as a Taoist temple during the Eastern Han dynasty, Emperor Yang of Sui converted it to Buddhism and renamed it Shangfeng Temple.
The temple holds ceremonies that connect practitioners with Buddhist teachings while maintaining the traditions of Han Chinese religious practices.
The temple remains accessible throughout the year, with transportation services connecting visitors from Hengyang city to the Mount Heng location.
Multiple reconstruction phases occurred after 1987, following its designation as a National Key Buddhist Temple, restoring structures destroyed during wartime.
