Zhengjue Temple, Buddhist temple in Qinglongqiao Subdistrict, China.

The Diamond Throne Pagoda stands as the central structure of Zhengjue Temple, featuring intricate stone carvings and traditional architectural elements along the Changhe River.

The temple originated during Emperor Chengzu's Yongle reign from 1403 to 1424, later receiving its current name Grand Zhengjue Temple in 1761.

The temple walls display one thousand Buddha carvings alongside various Buddhist symbols, animals, floral designs, and Sanskrit texts carved in stone.

Visitors can access the temple by taking bus routes 86, 319, or 320 to National Library Station, then walking south to the Changhe River bank.

The Diamond Throne Pagoda represents one of only ten such structures in China, with four located in Beijing at different temple sites.
