Baoshan Baolian Temple
Baolian Temple is situated in Honghua Village, 3 kilometers east of Baoshan City. The exact date of its original construction is unknown. It was reconstructed in the 39th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1774), and currently consists of two courtyards. The main hall features a single-eave gable-and-hip roof, with a total width of 13 meters and a depth of 10.4 meters. There are north and south side halls, each 14 meters wide and 4 meters deep. The middle hall is 10 meters wide and 7.5 meters deep. The layout of the temple is well-organized. Initially a Taoist site, it later became Buddhist, and eventually evolved into a place representing the integration of the three teachings, making it significant for the study of religion in Baoshan.
