Jian'ou Dongyue Temple, Taoist temple in Jian'ou, China

Jian'ou Dongyue Temple is a Taoist temple complex rebuilt in 1672, during the Kangxi reign of the Qing dynasty. It faces south toward the Jianxi River, with Baihe Mountain behind it, and covers 26,640 square metres. Its buildings include the mountain gate, front hall, opera stage, Shengdi Hall, Niangniang Hall, Cihang Hall and Yaoshi Hall; the Shengdi Hall has five bays across and four deep, under a double-eaved hip-and-gable roof.

Rebuilt in 1672, the eleventh year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing dynasty, the temple has been repaired several times since. It was listed as a county-level protected site in 1982, a Fujian provincial protected site in 1996, and a Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level in 2006.

The Main Hall honors the Eastern Mountain Emperor, a central figure in Taoist belief who oversees the cycles of life and death. Visitors can see statues and carvings throughout the temple that reflect these spiritual traditions.

The temple stands outside the east gate of Jian'an Subdistrict, facing south toward the Jianxi River with Baihe Mountain behind it. The grounds cover 26,640 square metres, so allow time to walk from the mountain gate through the front hall and stage to the halls at the rear.

The temple's main hall, the Shengdi Dian, is five bays wide and four bays deep, topped by a double-eaved hip-and-gable roof. The complex faces south toward the Jianxi River, with Baihe Mountain behind it, on a site of 26,640 square metres.
