Loudi Xuanzhen Temple

　　Xianren Mountain Xuanzhen Temple is located in Wanbao New District to the south of Loudi City, situated at the junction of the Shuifu Temple Lake area and the Sunshui River, encircled by mountains and embraced by water. Legend has it that three sisters once gathered herbs, practiced medicine, and cultivated Taoism here. After achieving enlightenment, they ascended to heaven during daylight, hence the name “Xianren Mountain” (Fairy Mountain). During the reign of Emperor Zhuangzong of the Tang Dynasty (Later Tang), a Fairy Temple was built here but was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. In 2003, the Loudi Taoist Association funded its reconstruction. The main structures include the Hall of the Holy Emperor of Nanyue and the Hall of Cihang (Goddess of Mercy), and it now serves as the headquarters of the Loudi Taoist Association.
