Shixiangsi

Showcasing Pujiang Buddhist culture, strategic location

There are Tianwang Hall, Guanyin Hall, Jade Buddha Hall, Ksitigarbha Hall, and Shilin in the temple. It was approved by the government as a venue for Buddhist activities in 1992. The cultural relics in the temple include Eastern Han stone lions, stone statues, and monuments during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty.

At Shixiang Lake, Pujiang, board the ship from Qixingtai Wharf, pass through Shixiang Temple, Wenxiang Bridge, Guqin Terrace, Erlong Opera Pearl, Chuanchuanyu Wharf, and then return to Guqintai Wharf to disembark. After disembarking, you can walk along the forest Trail to Shixiang Temple. The whole way is full of lush woods, and there is a long suspension bridge, which can reach the commanding height of Shixiang Lake, where you can take pictures of the whole Shixiang Lake area, which is often not possible for sightseeing. The Pujiang Ancient Temple Shixiang Temple is the home of the soul of Yan Yan, the famous general of the three countries. To put it bluntly, it is a place for religious activities. The buildings are basically newly built. There is no need to make a special trip. A visit to Shixiang Lake will always come here. Chengdu Xinnanmen Station has a shuttle bus to and from Shixiang Lake every day. The one-way ticket is 31 yuan and the journey takes 1.5 hours. If you return on the same day, it is best to go to Shixiang Temple in the morning. The impression is a little bit deeper is the stone statue in front of the Tianwang Temple.

Shixiang Temple is located in the "Shixiang Lake Scenic Area" of Pujiang County on the edge of the Western Sichuan Plain. The temple was built in 225 of the Shu Han Dynasty. It originated from the famous warlord of the Three Kingdoms, General Yan Yan, who lived in the Ziyanyan rock in the temple and was called immortal. The sacred place of Buddha is large in scale and beautiful in architecture.

At present, the scenic area is still under renovation. You can only visit the outside of Shixiang Temple. After entering the Shixiang Lake scenic spot, you can see the Shixiang Temple from a distance. Its appearance is majestic and there is a relatively large square in front.
