Hui Ming Temple

Hui Ming Temple

Hui Ming Temple is a cultural tourism attraction.

Hui Ming Temple is located on Huiming Spring Mountain, a sub-peak of Chimu Mountain in Jingning County. Built in the second year of the Xiantong era of the Tang Dynasty (861), it was named after Monk Hui Ming.

The main hall was rebuilt in the 19th year of the Jiaqing era of the Qing Dynasty (1814), and the rear hall along with the side wings were constructed in the fourth year of the Tongzhi era (1865). Today, only the mountain gate, stone path, and remnants of walls on both sides remain. The wooden doors of the original main hall in the courtyard are dilapidated, and it was rebuilt after 1982.

Legend has it that monks from the temple and local She people cultivated tea around the temple. The world-renowned "Gold Award Hui Ming Tea" is produced here.
