五股智光禪寺外觀

Zhiguang 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, serving as a place for laypeople to practice. Around the years 1998-1999, it was opportune to invite Master Ruxue to manage the temple affairs. Today, Zhiguang Temple is a grand Buddhist monastery with a vast area, surrounded by lush flora and beautiful landscapes of green mountains and clear waters. The old mountain gate of Zhiguang Temple was originally located in front of the main hall, with a pond in front of it, but was later moved to the left side of the temple, leading to the abandonment of the old mountain gate. To the south, Zhiguang Temple connects with Linkou, where Zhulin Temple can be visited. To the north, looking towards Bali and the Tamsui River, there are the ancient temples of Baolian Temple and Xiyun Temple, and it is adjacent to Lingyun Temple on Guanyin Mountain, making it a place of exceptional spiritual significance.
