Dingguang Temple Introduction
Main Deity: Buddha of Steadfast Light Historical Development: The Buddha of Steadfast Light Temple is a historical site in Dingu Township. Originally named "Dingu An," it was built in the 26th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. After the devastating earthquake in Changhua in the 28th year of the Daoguang reign (1848), it was rebuilt by devotees such as Zhang Lianxi and renamed "Buddha of Steadfast Light Temple." The temple is not particularly eye-catching in appearance; it lacks a grandiose entrance and does not exude the solemn tranquility of a remote mountain temple. Located at 140 Guangfu Road in Changhua's bustling area, it exists in its own world, where passersby often stop to pray with hands clasped together. It is one of the earliest and most well-attended temples in Changhua City.
