Tianning Temple, Buddhist temple pagoda in Ningbo, China.

Tianning Temple is a former Buddhist temple in Ningbo, of which only the West Pagoda remains above ground. The square brick pagoda has five storeys, stands 12 metres high before restoration, and occupies 11 square metres. Its walls are 90 centimetres thick, and the first storey is 3.5 metres tall, with upper storeys decreasing from 1.08 to 0.84 metres. The East Pagoda collapsed in the late Qing, leaving only its foundation.

The temple was founded during the Tang Dynasty when Buddhism flourished across China. Its structures have been maintained through centuries of change and finally received official national protection status as a Major Historical and Cultural Site in 2006.

The temple no longer exists as a place of worship: its halls were demolished after 1949, leaving only the West Pagoda. Locals call that pagoda "Wugui Ta" (Tortoise Pagoda) because of its squat shape, and its bricks carry the inscription "made in the fourth year of Xiantong" (863). The East Pagoda collapsed in the late Guangxu era; its foundation was excavated in 1995 and reburied.

The complex sits in central Ningbo and is easy to reach on foot, with clear pathways connecting the various structures spread across the grounds. Visitors should plan to move slowly through the different halls and courtyards to take in the details at a comfortable pace.

The East Pagoda collapsed in the Guangxu era; its foundation, excavated in 1995, contained Han and Jin tomb bricks reused in the base and six bricks stamped "Xiantong 3" (862). The pagoda's tilt was traced to slippage from the subcity moat and damage from a 1684 fire.
