Situated on Zhutou Ridge, Gangling Road, Wuzhou City, it is the largest Buddhist temple constructed in recent history in Wuzhou. Built in 1933, the site comprises six brick-and-wood structures: a gatehouse, Xizhu Hall, Guanyin Hall, the Mahavira Hall, and side rooms, covering an area of 10,000 square meters. Recently renovated, the Mahavira Hall houses statues of Sakyamuni, Amitabha, Bhaisajyaguru, and Ksitigarbha along with Guanyin Bodhisattva. The temple also treasures a complete set of the “Tripitaka” consisting of 7,173 volumes, as well as bronze tripods, bells, and lighthouse lanterns. Distinguished monks such as Dang Cheng from Liurong Temple in Guangzhou, Ju Zan from Longhua Temple on Xishan Mountain in Guiping, and Dao’an from the Guangxi Buddhist Association have all given sermons here. It serves as a center for Buddhist activities in Wuzhou City.
