土城廣承岩寺建築物外觀

Located directly across from Tucheng MRT Station, it was established in 1969. The first abbot was Master Chuanbin, a disciple of the venerable monk Guangqin. In 1978, the Huazang Pagoda, the Main Hall, and the Sutra Pavilion were built in accordance with the terrain of Xiaoshanlun. Today, Guangcheng Rock is a modern building constructed in 1994. Due to the widening and renovation of Jincheng Road, around 1,000 ping of the original 1,400 ping temple land was expropriated, necessitating the reconstruction into a building while still maintaining the traditional temple-style architecture.

Tucheng Guangchengyan Temple Introduction

Located directly opposite Tucheng MRT Station, Guang Cheng Yan was established in 1969 (the 58th year of the Republic of China) under the leadership of Master Zhan Bin, a disciple of the late Master Guang Qin. In 1978 (the 67th year of the Republic of China), the construction of buildings such as the Huazang Pagoda, Da Xiong Bao Dian, and the Tibetan Scriptures Pavilion was carried out according to the terrain of Xiaoshanlun. The current modern building of Guang Cheng Yan was built in 1994 (the 83rd year of the Republic of China) due to the widening and reconstruction of Jin Cheng Road, resulting in the expropriation of about 1,000 pings of the original 1,400-ping temple site. However, the exterior still retains the traditional temple architectural style.
