Main Hall of Zhenru Temple
Main Hall of Zhenru Temple, Buddhist temple hall in Putuo District, Shanghai, China
The Main Hall of Zhenru Temple contains 16 wooden poles, with 10 of them dating back to the Yuan Dynasty construction period.
The hall, constructed in 1320 by Monk Miao Xin during the Yuan Dynasty, stands as the oldest timber structure south of the Yangtze River.
The central hall features a 2,500-kilogram jade statue of Sakyamuni Buddha, representing traditional Buddhist craftsmanship and religious significance.
The temple hall opens to visitors who arrive via Line 11 to Zhenru Station, with access through Exit 5 on Tongchuan Road.
The structure earned the name 'Inward Feet' due to its gold poles at the front and back leaning inward toward the center.
