五股智光禪寺外觀

Zhiguang Zen Temple is located in Wugu District, New Taipei City and is one of the three monasteries established by Master Ruxue. Over 20 years ago, it was originally a small private Buddhist hall for family practice. Around the 87th and 58th year of the Republic of China, the opportunity arose, and Master Ruxue was invited to preside over the temple's affairs. The current Zhiguang Zen Temple is a grand structure covering a vast area, with flourishing greenery and beautiful mountains and waters surrounding it. The old mountain gate of Zhiguang Zen Temple was originally located right in front of the Main Hall, with a pond in front, but it was later relocated to the left side of the temple, resulting in the old mountain gate being abandoned. Zhiguang Zen Temple is south of Linkou, with Zhulin Temple available for visitors, and looking north towards Bali's Danhai, there are two ancient temples, Baoxie Zen Temple and Xiyun Zen Temple. It is also adjacent to Lingyun Zen Temple on Guanyin Mountain, making it a place rich in spiritual heritage.
