Introduction to Dinghui Temple: Dinghui Temple was built in the Xingping period of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was originally called Puji Zen Temple and was the largest temple in Jiaoshan. It was renamed Dinghui Temple and is still in use today. The temple still maintains the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty.
The main hall in the temple is an all-wood structure with cornices and brackets. It is of superb art and is rarely seen in China. In addition, the three magnificent Buddhas in the hall make it even more majestic. The statues of Sakyamuni, Kasyapa and Ananda in the middle of the hall are lifelike. There are dozens of newly made Arhat statues lined up on both sides, exquisite ever-burning lanterns hanging high in the air, and incense lingering in the copper stove. The whole hall looks solemn and solemn, and the ancient temple is ethereal. The two ginkgo trees in front of the temple are more than 400 years old.
There are famous monks in Dinghui Temple: Xuanzang's disciple Fa Bao founded the Mahavira Hall and passed down the Dharma to the Xiangzong; Jianzhen's disciple Shenyong passed on the Tianru Zong; during the Anti-Japanese War, Abbot Jingyan actively resisted the Japanese and was unyielding.
