Shangjiadong Xianji Temple is a Chinese temple in Houbi District that showcases traditional architecture and detailed carved decorations throughout its buildings. The design reflects classical elements commonly found in religious structures of this type across the region.

The temple was founded in 1807 and quickly became an important religious center in the Houbi District. It has maintained its spiritual role for more than two centuries, serving the community throughout this period.
