Lianghu Yuxu Temple | A simple and unadorned Taoist temple in the Yuan Dynasty style.

| A simple and unadorned Taoist temple in the Yuan Dynasty style. Yuxu Temple is the best-preserved ancient temple in Lianghu Village, and also the largest, with a north-south length of 98 meters, an east-west width of 35 meters, a total area of about 3,500 square meters, and a main hall height of about 10 meters. The base of the Sumeru seat is clearly recorded as being built in the 18th year of the Jin Dynasty (1178), a huge project originally built on the banks of the original village river. Later, due to artificial river management, the original village river was diverted to the south, and the street below Yuxu Temple became a busy traffic artery and the main street market in the village. The main hall of Yuxu Temple is five rooms wide, and the shape of the door is characteristic of the Yuan Dynasty. The rear hall of Yuxu Temple has a beautiful glazed roof ridge, which is likely to be a Yuan Dynasty craft, very majestic and beautiful, with a dragon body that is strong and powerful, in the Yuan Dynasty style. Gaoping Lianghu Village Yuxu Temple is an ancient building from the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, simple and unadorned, and is also the most important national protection unit in the village. Address: Lianghu Village, Yuancun Township, Gaoping City, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province
