Wangxian Temple

Wangxian Temple is a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit.

Wangxian Temple

Wangxian Temple is located dozens of meters below Wangxian Peak on the western side of Zhuxi. On a spacious piece of land, the renowned Wangxian Temple stands under lush pines and cypresses.

The temple has three levels. The highest level is nestled right against a thousand-year-old osmanthus tree, and on its grand platform stand three major deities: Qiu Daxian, Wang Daxian, and Guo Daxian. The three deities are depicted in various dynamic poses—some running, some standing, some with arms outstretched, some charging ahead—all with fiery eyes and majestic presence.

The lowest level is the main structure, with all the necessary facilities for worship in the side rooms. In the central hall stands the golden statues of the Three Goddesses: He Goddess, Ge Goddess, and Wan Goddess. They all have kind and gentle expressions, their robes flowing, exuding warmth and compassion.

The middle level has a narrower terrain, where a naturally formed stone lion lies on its back, facing the sky—it is called the "Facing-the-Sky Lion." Beneath its neck, a spring gushes out continuously without interruption. This spring is said to be very spiritual: every year during the first and eighth lunar months, typically dry seasons, the spring flow increases with the rise in incense offerings, always ensuring enough water supply.

After the liberation, due to the campaign to eliminate the "Four Olds," the temple suffered severe damage, but many worshippers still visited it secretly. In recent years, the temple has been designated as a key cultural relics protection unit and undergone extensive restoration. Especially during the first and eighth lunar months, it attracts crowds of worshippers, creating a spectacular scene.
