Characteristics of Chenghuang Temple
The architectural design of Chenghuang Temple is unique and the structure is rigorous and ingenious. It is built on a mountain and a slope, and is rich in Taoist philosophy. Its building is divided into upper and lower areas, showing a T-shape. Looking from the bottom, you can see the magnificent scenery of the temple.
The layout of Chenghuang Temple is rigorous and the division of labor is clear. Climb the 100 multi-step stone steps and enter the entrance of Toudao Mountain, with "Ten Halls" on both sides, forming an orderly spatial structure.
The feudal secularity of Chenghuang Temple is strong. As a temple built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it paid more attention to the handling of secular affairs than the general Taoist temple, reflecting the social customs and religious beliefs at that time.
