Xuanmiao Temple

  Xuanmiao Temple is located in the middle of Jingbei Road in Jingzhou City and was built in the Tang Dynasty. The Xuanmiao Temple we see today is a building preserved from the Yuan Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Shun of Yuan conferred the title of "Wine Immortal" on Tang Dongyun, the Taoist priest in charge of the temple, and Xuanmiao Temple was renamed "Jiulao Xiandu Palace" at that time. Xuanmiao Temple was originally made up of a mountain gate and six halls and pavilions, but it was rebuilt in the 12th year of the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, leaving only the Jade Emperor Pavilion, the Santian Gate, and the Zihuang Hall. The Jade Emperor Pavilion has three layers of flying eaves, and each layer of eaves is decorated with exquisite and beautiful dougong. The three layers of eaves are large to small, resembling a three-story pagoda.
