Dingguang Buddha Temple Introduction
Main Deity: Buddha of Definitive Light Historical Background: The Definitive Light Temple is a historic site located in Changhua County. Originally named "Dingguang An," it was built in the twenty-sixth year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty. After the major earthquake in Changhua in the twenty-eighth year of the Daoguang reign (1848), it was renovated by devotees such as Zhang Lianxi and renamed "Dingguang Buddha Temple." The temple is not particularly eye-catching in appearance; it lacks a grand entrance and the serene tranquility of remote ancient temples. Located in a bustling area along the main avenue in front of Changhua Railway Station (No. 140, Guangfu Road), it creates its own space where passersby often stop to bow in prayer with their hands together. It is one of the oldest and most renowned temples in Changhua City.
