Ding Guang Buddha Temple Introduction

Main Deity: Buddha of Steadfast Light Historical Development: The Buddha of Steadfast Light Temple, originally named "Dingguang An," was established in the 26th year of the Qianlong reign during the Qing Dynasty. After the major earthquake in Changhua in 1848, it was repaired by devotees including Zhang Lianxi and renamed "Dingguang Buddha Temple." The Dingguang Buddha Temple is not particularly eye-catching in appearance; it lacks a majestic entrance and the solemn tranquility of an ancient temple in the mountains. It is located in a corner of the bustling area on the main road (No. 140 Guangfu Road) near Changhua Railway Station, where passersby often stop to fold their hands and pay their respects. It is one of the earliest and most revered temples in Changhua City.
