Taipei Attractions

五股智光禪寺外觀

Zhiguang Zen Temple is located in Wugu District, New Taipei City. It is one of the three temples founded by Master Ruxue. Over twenty years ago, it was originally a small private Buddhist hall for family practice. Around the 87th year of the Republic of China (1998), after suitable circumstances emerged, Master Ruxue was invited to preside over the temple’s affairs. Today, Zhiguang Zen Temple is a grand Buddhist temple covering a vast area, with lush greenery and beautiful mountains and rivers. The old mountain gate of Zhiguang Zen Temple was originally located in front of the Mahavira Hall, with a pond in front of it. It was later relocated to the left side of the temple, leading to the old mountain gate being abandoned. Zhiguang Zen Temple is south of Linkou, where you can visit Zhulin Temple. To the north, you can see Bajia and Danhai with the ancient temples of Baoxie Temple and Xiyun Temple, and it is adjacent to Lingyun Temple on Guanyin Mountain, making it a place with great natural and cultural significance.

Wugu Zhiguang Temple Introduction

Zhiguang Zen Temple is located in Wugu District, New Taipei City, and is one of the three temples established by Master Ruxue. Over 20 years ago, it was originally a small private shrine serving as a place for family practice. Around the 87th year of the Republic of China (1998), the opportunity arose to invite Master Ruxue to manage the temple affairs. Today, Zhiguang Zen Temple is an impressively built Buddhist temple covering a vast area, with lush greenery and beautiful mountains and waters. The old mountain gate of Zhiguang Zen Temple was originally located in front of the Main Hall, where there used to be a pond. It was later relocated to the left side of the temple, and the old mountain gate was thus abandoned. Zhiguang Zen Temple connects to Linkou to the south, where you can visit Zhulin Temple, and to the north overlooks the Dahan River, with two ancient temples, Baoxie Zen Temple and Xiyun Zen Temple. It also neighbors Lingyun Zen Temple on Guanyin Mountain, making it a remarkable place with spiritual significance.
