Lushan Temple, National Key Buddhist Temple in Yuelu Mountain, Changsha, China.
Lushan Temple features multiple buildings including the Hall of Great Heroes, Zazen meditation room, dining hall, and entrance structures on Yuelu Mountain.
Founded in 268 AD by Zhu Fachong during the Jin dynasty, the temple experienced multiple destructions and reconstructions through the Tang, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties.
The temple grounds served as a gathering place for scholars and poets throughout Chinese history, combining Buddhist practices with intellectual pursuits.
Located at 58 Denggao Road in Yuelu District, the temple opens daily without entrance fees, offering visitors access to its religious and historical structures.
Buddhist monk Zhiyi constructed a pagoda in 602 AD specifically to house sacred relics of Buddha, marking a significant addition to the temple complex.
