Dingguang Buddha Temple Introduction

Main deity: Buddha of Definitive Light History: The Buddha of Definitive Light Temple, originally named "Dingguang An", was established in the 26th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. After the major earthquake in Changhua in the 28th year of the Daoguang reign (1848), it was rebuilt by devotees led by Zhang Lianxi and renamed "Dingguang Buddha Temple." The Dingguang Buddha Temple is not a particularly eye-catching temple; it has no grand entrance nor the solemn tranquility of a remote ancient temple. It is located in a corner of the bustling area along the main avenue in front of Changhua Railway Station (No. 140 Guangfu Road), creating its own unique space. Passersby often stop in front of the temple, clasping their hands together in prayer, making it one of the earliest and most popular temples in Changhua City.
