Shengjinggang

Highlights The "Sacred Well" is located in the courtyard in front of the front hall. It is over ten feet deep, and the water remains crystal clear year-round, with a consistent level regardless of drought or flood—hence the name "Sacred Well." In ancient times, locals would come at set times to pray for rain by requesting divine plaques, which they returned after their prayers were answered. As a result, over a hundred silver, copper, and iron plaques have been unearthed from the well. The rear hall is grand in scale and forms an ancient architectural complex that can rival the Lüxian Temple at Huangliang Dream.

Located 10 kilometers northwest of Handan City, its main structures include a theater stage, mountain gate, front hall, rear hall, bell tower, east corridor, east side hall, Child-Giving Goddess Temple, west corridor, side halls, and Eye Goddess Temple, all arranged in a symmetrical and unified layout.
