Yinshan Temple, Buddhist temple in Tamsui, Taiwan
Yinshan Temple features a symmetrical layout with three entrance halls, two side corridors, and a main shrine hall surrounded by protective wing rooms.
The temple was established in 1822 by immigrants from Tingzhou who collected funds to build a spiritual center for their community in Tamsui.
The temple houses a rare articulated statue of Buddha Dingguang, made with movable joints and layered with multiple ceremonial robes.
The temple opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and is located at 15 Denggong Road, within walking distance from Tamsui Metro Station.
The temple incorporates a half-moon pond and two wells in its design, forming a toad-shaped layout according to traditional feng shui principles.
