Situated on the Shilin Mountain, Keqiao Xitianzhu Shilin Zen Temple spans over 200 acres of land and dates back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, boasting a rich history marked by numerous changes and renovations. In the 15th year of the Daoguang Emperor’s reign, the devout follower Li Ru Di and her son generously donated funds for the temple’s reconstruction. Today, the temple complex features a collection of more than ten Buddhist architectural structures including the Mahavira Hall, the Yuantong Hall, the Tianzhu Pagoda, the Bell and Drum Towers, the Release Pond, the Nine-Dragon Wall, and smaller halls and chambers on both the east and west sides.
