Guangxiao Temple

Guangxiao Temple, one of Guangdong's famous ancient buildings, is located near Jinghui Road at the north end of Guangxiao Road, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province. According to the "Guangxiao Temple Zhi", it was originally the former residence of Zhao Jiande, the Nanyue king of the second century BC. In the Three Kingdoms era, Wu Guoxuan lived here, and was named Yuanxuan. After the death of Yuan, the family house was called a temple. The name of the temple has been changed several times. The first name stopped the temple. The five-year (401) in Long'an, Dongjin, called Wuyuan Temple, the Tang Dynasty called Ganming Faxing Temple, the five-generation Nanhan Dynasty called Ganheng Temple, the Northern Song Dynasty called Wanshou Temple, the Southern Song Dynasty called the Enguangxiao Temple, and soon changed the Guangzi to Guangzi. It was renamed Guangxiao Temple. The temple is a rigorous structure and magnificent temple, especially the cultural relics and historical sites. Such as the Daxiong Temple built in the East Jin Dynasty, the washing springs dug by Damo in the Southern Dynasty, the Ephrase Tower, the Shijing Building, the Thousand Buddha Tower in the Southern Han Dynasty, the Six-Zudian Temple in the Song and Ming Dynasty, the Reclining Buddha Temple, as well as inscriptions, Buddha statues, dumpling trees, Bodhi trees, etc., are precious relics of Buddhism.

It is rare to have such a magnificent ancient temple in the southern city of the motherland. There are many ancient buildings in the temple, such as the Great Hall, the Ancient Tower, the Iron Tower, the Bodhi Tree, etc., which are worthy of being a key national cultural relics protection unit.

Guangzhou Tourism ｜ The millennium ancient temple hidden at the west gate has not come to Guangxiao Temple for a long time. I took advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday to stroll around, and actually entered the park. I slowly admired this millennium ancient temple! As the former residence of Zhao Jiande, the king of Nanyue, has a long history, a majestic temple, and many cultural relics. My most interested is the ancient Bodhi tree in front of the Liuzu Hall 🌲, which is one of the eight scenic spots in Yangcheng! After shopping in the hot street 🥵 Spicy, let me have a bottle of Guanzhan collagen flower glue 🍮, and eat the skin 💆‍♀️ and become full and tight! 🏠 Attractions: Guangxiao Temple 🚘 Address: No. 109 Guangxiao Road #Guangzhou Tourism

In 2023, the epidemic prevention and control was released, and Guangzhou Guangxiao Temple was finally opened normally! At the beginning of the New Year, there was a sea of people, but the management was in order. Everyone also queued up civilizedly to enter the venue. The scene could not be fragrant on the fire, and there were a lot of flowers! The overall feeling is better! 👍👍👍

Guangxiao Temple is located at the north end of Guangxiao Road, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province. According to historical records, it was originally the former residence of Zhao Jiande, the king of Nanyue, in 200 BC. Wu Qidu, the three kingdoms, lived here to lecture, and opened it as a garden. The family house was used as a temple, and the first name was stopped. The name of the temple was changed many times in the later generations, until the Southern Song Dynasty called Bao En Guangxiao Temple, and soon after the word was changed to the word Guangxiao Temple, which is known as the Guangxiao Temple. The architectural structure of Guangxiao Temple is rigorous, the temple is majestic, and the whole complex has distinctive Lingnan architectural characteristics, which is the crown of the Lingnan jungle. There are many cultural relics in the temple. When you walk in Guangzhou, you must go to the first temple in Lingnan to see and worship. As soon as you enter the door, you will be shocked by its magnificent buildings and solemn atmosphere. As a key cultural relics protection unit in the country, there is no open fire burning incense here, and it is true that the heart is replaced by a large number of flowers to worship Buddha.
