Taibo Temple, Religious temple in Wuxi, China

The Taibo Temple stands at No. 250 Xia Tang Street, featuring a main hall with three rooms, east and west wings, and the Zhide Bridge.

Built during the Eastern Han Dynasty, the temple commemorates Taibo, the eldest son of King Tai who established the State of Wu around 1150 BCE.

The temple serves as the primary worship site in the Jiangnan region, containing stone steles that document renovations from the Kangxi and Guangxu periods.

The temple received extensive renovations in 2009, which included the removal of a vegetable market and the restoration of its original architectural features.

Emperor Kangxi bestowed the inscription 'Zhi De Wu Ming' upon the temple, while Emperor Qianlong later added the characters 'San Rang Gao Zong'.
