Guangji Temple, Buddhist temple in Jinghu District, Wuhu, China

Guangji Temple stands on the southwest hillside of Mount Zhe in Wuhu's Jinghu District. Its rebuilt halls follow a central axis: the Hall of Four Heavenly Kings, Hall of Bhaisajyaguru, Mahavira Hall, Hall of Ksitigarbha and the 28-metre, five-storey, six-sided Zhe Pagoda of 1065. The Hall of Ksitigarbha holds a 12-metre statue of Ksitigarbha flanked by Min Wen and Daoming.

The temple was founded during the Tang Dynasty and received its current name in the Northern Song period following earlier changes to its designation. The structure evolved through successive renovations that shaped its layout and architectural character over many centuries.

The temple preserves religious artworks and ritual objects that reflect how Buddhist practice evolved over centuries in this region. Visitors can observe daily worship and prayer activities that continue to shape the spiritual life of the community.

The site is accessible by local buses that connect to main transport hubs throughout Wuhu, making it easy to reach from different parts of the city. The surrounding area offers plenty of places to eat and drink, and the grounds provide space to walk and explore at your own pace.

The Zhezha Pagoda, a 28-metre, five-storey hexagonal tower built in 1065, holds a seated Ksitigarbha statue inside. Its misty view, "Zhe Pagoda Qinglan", was counted among the old Eight Scenes of Wuhu. The temple also keeps a gold seal of Ksitigarbha cast in 757 from placer gold.
