The Kaoxi Village Shuikou Tea Pavilion and Taizi Temple

The Kaoxi Village Shuikou Tea Pavilion is located at the entrance of Kaoxi Village, facing south, built in the 13th year of the Republic of China (1924), with a single-bay three-section layout, a gable roof, and covers an area of 28 square meters. It stands just next to the Taizi Temple, separated only by a wall.

The Taizi Temple is also located at the entrance of Kaoxi Village, facing south, built during the Republican era, featuring a single-bay two-section layout, a gable roof, and covers an area of 68 square meters.

In 1933, comrades such as Fang Zhimin, Wang Chengxin, and Shu Mengxiong successively came to Kaoxi to carry out revolutionary work. The tea pavilion and the Taizi Temple at the village entrance served as secret contact points for the Party organization’s leaders at the time, used to transmit information and conduct revolutionary activities. Preserving the Shuikou Tea Pavilion and the Taizi Temple holds significant value for researching the local history of the Red Revolution in Kaoxi. Currently, both structures are in fair condition.
