Jing’an Temple
Jing’an Temple is one of the most famous symbols of Shanghai.

First built in the year 247 in a different location near the Huangpu River, the temple has a remarkable, turbulent and peerless history. The namesake of Shanghai’s Jing’an District has stood in the same spot since 1216, although not always as a Buddhist temple and shrine. Incredibly, Jing’an Temple was a plastics factory throughout most of the Cultural Revolution under Chairman Mao Tse-tung. Rebuilt as a place of worship, study and veneration in 1983, Jing’an Temple is now once more one of Shanghai’s pre-eminent points of interest.
Vitals and Tips
Jing’an Temple has three main halls and courtyards. The Nanjing Road West shrine is a short walk from Jing’an Temple station on Shanghai Metro Line 2.
“Jing’an” translates as “peace and tranquillity”.
The temple is open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Visitors must pay a modest admission fee to tour the temple complex.
