Jingxin Temple, a national key cultural relic protection site|Guan Di Temple.

On the east side of the main hall, the Mahavira Hall, stands a small and exquisite Guandi Hall, where Guan Gong - Guan Yu is enshrined, and he is revered as the guardian deity of Buddhism. The statue of Guan Yu is dressed in civil official attire, wearing a crown and holding a book, yet his face accurately displays the unique majesty and heroism of Guan Yu as described in ancient books. It is said that there are 45 dragons carefully painted on the ceiling and wall brackets of Guan Gong's shrine, which highlights Guan Gong's lofty status as the supreme ruler and adds a bit of mystery and solemnity. The colorful sculptures in the hall are lifelike, showing not only the majestic image of Emperor Guan, but also his loyal subordinate Zhou Cang accompanying him. Although the Guandi Temple carries profound faith and cultural connotations, it is not one of the core halls of orthodox Buddhist temples.
