Kaiyuan Temple

Kaiyuan Temple is a Buddhist temple located in Xiangqiao District of Chaozhou, Guangdong, China. After Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne in 713, he issued an edict establishing Kaiyuan Temples, named after his reign title Kaiyuan, in prefectures throughout the Tang Empire. Over the centuries, through the rise and fall of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, many of the existing structures at Kaiyuan Temple have retained their original appearance.
