Xuanzang Temple or Syuentzang Temple ({{zh|c=玄奘寺|p=Xuánzàng Sì|w=Syuéntzàng Sì}}) is a Buddhist temple located in Yuchi Township of Nantou County, Taiwan.{{sfnb|Wei Ming|2013|p=85}}

History

Xuanzang Temple was built in 1965 by the Nantou County Government in memory of Xuanzang (602–664), a prominent Buddhist monk who made a seventeen-year overland journey to India during the Tang dynasty (618–907) in the seventh century. It sits on a hill named "Qinglong" ({{zh|t=青龍山|labels=no}}) near the Sun Moon Lake, the largest body of water in Taiwan.{{sfnb|Wei Ming|2013|p=85}}

In 1955, the Government of Japan gave the Śarīra of Xuanzang back to the Government of the Republic of China, which was a plunder from Nanjing during the Second Sino-Japanese War.[1] In November 1965, the Śarīra of Xuanzang was enshrined in Xuanzang Temple.[1]

Architecture

The structure is modeled after ancient halls and rooms from the Tang dynasty (618–907). The Xuanzang Hall is the main hall of the temple. It has three floors. Under the eaves is a plaque with the Chinese characters "{{zh|t=玄奘殿|labels=no}}" (Xuanzang Hall) hanging on the door lintel and a statue of Xuanzang on his way to seek Buddhist texts. The second floor is the main floor, contains Xuanzang's shrine, and the third floor has a pagoda named "Xuanzang Pagoda" that keeps Xuanzang's Śarīra and many of his classic works.{{sfnb|Wei Ming|2013|p=85}}
