Kaifu Temple, Buddhist temple in Kaifu District, Changsha, China.

Kaifu Temple is a Buddhist temple in Kaifu District, Changsha, Hunan, China. Its central axis runs north-south through the Three Sages Hall, Mahavira Hall, Vairocana Hall, Lotus Pond Sea Assembly Hall and Bihu Poetry Society. The Mahavira Hall is 20 metres high with a double-eaved hip roof and round stone columns. The temple covers 48,000 square metres, with 16,000 square metres of buildings.

The temple was founded in the 10th century when a monk named Baoning received a park and established a Buddhist community there. This early shrine later developed into one of the region's major temples as Changsha itself grew.

In the Pilu Hall, 500 luohan figures about 0.4 metres tall surround the Vairocana Buddha. Worshippers pick any luohan as a starting point, count to their own age, then draw a numbered lot to read their fortune. The temple belongs to the Yangqi branch of the Linji school, and Japan's Hōtō school regards it as one of its ancestral sites.

The temple stands in Kaifu District, north of the old city, with its main buildings aligned on a north-south axis. The central route runs through the Hall of the Three Sages, the Mahavira Hall, the Vairocana Hall and the Lotus Pond Sea Assembly Hall. The east and west wings hold the reception rooms, meditation hall and refectory. The grounds cover 48,000 square metres.

The temple's name gave the surrounding Kaifu District its name, and locals say Kaifu Temple came before Changsha city itself. In 1997 the temple brought a jade statue of Shakyamuni and jade figures of Ananda and Kashyapa from Myanmar, then obtained five editions of the Tripitaka from Taiwan and elsewhere.
