Linkou Zhulin Temple

Zhulinshan Guanyin Temple, referred to as Zhulinshan Temple, is also known as Linkou Guanyinma Temple or Linkou Temple. It is a Guanyin temple in Taiwan. It is the faith center of the three areas of Linkou, Luzhu and Guishan. It is very popular and is also a famous tourist attraction. It is located at No. 325, Zhulin Road, Linkou District, New Taipei City. It was originally a Japanese-style building, but was later rebuilt into a traditional Japanese-style temple. It was rebuilt in 2000 and became even more majestic and spectacular after its completion, at a cost of NT$2 billion. There is a Taiwanese-style garden covering an area of ​​about 20,000 ping (about 66,000 square meters, or 6.8 hectares) in front of the temple for visitors to relax. As cherry blossoms are planted in the garden, it is often crowded with people admiring the cherry blossoms in spring. In 1801, the Shenming Society was founded to worship the "Eighteen-armed Guanyin" at the Longshan Temple in Quan'an, Quanzhou. When the temple was built in 1939, it was called Linkou Longshan Temple, and later changed to Zhulinshan Temple. In 1949, it was renamed Zhulinshan Guanyin Temple. #Temple #New Taipei City #Linkou
