Gueiren Renshou Temple, Chinese temple in Gueiren District, Taiwan.

The Gueiren Renshou Temple features traditional Chinese architectural elements, including carved altars and multiple Buddha statues throughout its interior halls.

Founded in 1656 during the Qing dynasty by Chan master Zongtang, the temple underwent several reconstructions, including major renovations by monk Yulin in 1669.

The temple functions as both a religious center and community gathering place where local residents participate in Buddhist ceremonies and philosophical discussions.

Visitors can reach the temple via regular bus services from Tainan city center, with the site opening daily from early morning until evening hours.

The temple contains a seven-story Ruyi Pagoda, constructed in 1935, which houses more than ten porcelain Buddha statues within its structure.
