Destination Introduction
Baoying Temple is located at No. 29, Dalai Lane, Xuanwu District. It is said to be an ancient temple built during the Tang Dynasty. Originally, there was a stele erected by Gu Bingqian, an editor during the Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty, recording the renovation of Baoying Temple, as well as a bronze bell cast in the 32nd year of the Wanli era. Beside the temple lies the tomb of Wang An, who served as the head of the Ming Dynasty's Court of Ceremonial. In the late Qing Dynasty, it was converted into the Shandong Dalai Benevolent Garden. Currently, the four main halls and auxiliary courtyards still remain and are key cultural relics protected by Xuanwu District.
