Ciyun Ge, Buddhist temple complex in Dingxing County, China.

The Ciyun Ge temple complex features multiple halls and structures that demonstrate traditional Chinese architectural techniques from the Tang dynasty period.

Following its establishment in the 18th century during Emperor Qianlong's reign, the temple underwent substantial renovations in 1927 under Chan master Yunyan's direction.

The Mahavira Hall contains a remarkable jade statue of Sakyamuni, measuring 1.87 meters and weighing 1,500 kilograms, which arrived from Myanmar in 1931.

The temple complex received Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected status at the National Level in 1996, ensuring preservation for future generations.

A complete structural restoration of the temple buildings and grounds concluded in April 2016, returning the site to its former grandeur.
