Lingguang Temple

Lingguang Temple is a Buddhist temple in Guangrong Village situated on an eastern slope with stone walls and traditional Chinese architectural elements encompassing multiple prayer halls. The complex displays classical design features with carefully arranged structures that define the grounds.

The temple was founded during the Tang Dynasty between 766 and 779 and served from its inception as a center for Buddhist practices. Over the centuries, it has maintained and evolved its importance as a spiritual site.

The temple serves as a gathering place for Buddhist practitioners from surrounding communities who come for regular ceremonies and meditation sessions. Daily rituals and teachings here form the spiritual backbone of the region's religious life.

The temple is generally accessible from sunrise to sunset and can be reached by local bus services from nearby towns. Early morning visits offer a quieter experience as the temple is less crowded during these hours.

The site houses a significant collection of ancient Buddhist manuscripts and artifacts preserved in a dedicated conservation room on the grounds. These valuable texts offer insight into the intellectual and spiritual history of the location.
