Xiaohuilin Erxian Temple

　　Xiaohuilin Erxian Temple (Fifth Batch of National Key Cultural Relics Protection Units)

　　Era: Northern Song to Qing Dynasty

　　Address: Xiaohui Village, Fucheng Town, 17 km southwest of Lingchuan County

　　The temple enshrines the two goddesses Chonghui and Chongshu, hence the name. The date of its establishment is unknown. The existing structures include a main hall from the Song Dynasty, while the rest were built during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

　　The temple faces south and has a single-courtyard layout, covering an area of 1,254.96 square meters. Along the central axis are, in sequence, the mountain gate, offering hall, and main hall, with watchtowers, corridors, side halls, and wing rooms distributed on the east and west sides.

　　The offering hall is a Qing Dynasty structure, with a platform base 0.41 meters high, a three-bay width, a one-bay depth, and a single-eave rolled shed roof. The main hall is seven meters wide and 7.45 meters deep, with a square floor plan and a single-eave hip-and-gable roof. The roof has a gentle pitch and deeply overhanging eaves. Below the eaves, the column-top bracket sets are arranged in a layered fashion, with single-layered brackets extending out. The wooden structure is relatively simple, but the beam frames and bracket arms are well-preserved, showing distinct features of Song Dynasty architecture. The surrounding ancient buildings and site location embody the essence of Song Dynasty architectural style.
