Jingyuan Temple, commonly known as Yuhuosuo Temple, is located in Zhanggutai Village, Daqintala Town, about 10 kilometers from the government seat of Naiman Banner. The pagoda was originally built during the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. In 1937, it was moved eastward to a location slightly north of the west side of the Chaokeqin (Great Scripture Hall) of Hushuo Temple, and was rebuilt to twice the original size while maintaining the original design. A lama (skilled in architecture) who was on his way to worship at Mount Wutai oversaw the reconstruction. With a history of nearly 300 years up to its construction and 68 years since its rebuilding, the site now preserves a single white pagoda, which is a regional-level cultural relic. This pagoda also stands as an important historical testament to the 24 lost temples in Naiman, represented by Hushuo Temple.
