Mingjiao Temple, Buddhist temple in Luyang District, China.
The temple complex contains multiple halls including the Mahavira Hall, which houses statues of the Five Tathagatas and Eighteen Arhats.
Founded in the early 6th century, the temple underwent multiple reconstructions after facing destruction during wars and natural events throughout its existence.
The temple functions as a center for Chan Buddhism of the Linji school, with regular ceremonies and meditation sessions held in its various halls.
Located in Hefei city, the temple maintains open hours for visitors who can observe Buddhist practices and architectural elements of traditional Chinese design.
During the Tang dynasty, the discovery of an iron Buddha statue in the ruins led Emperor Daizong to initiate a reconstruction of the temple.
