Six Banyan Temple |
| Address: NO.87 Liurong Rd.Yuexiu District.Guangzhou

| Open Hours: 08:30-17:00

Nestled in the Liurong road, one of the four major Buddist bases in Guangzhou. Initially built in the 3rd year of Liang Da Tong reign, thus being over 1400 years old so far.
In the 3rd year of Yuan-fu Regin, Su Dong-po (a great writer in the ancient history of China) once visited the temple, and saw the six old banyan trees; he then joyfully wrote down two Chinese characters "Liu Rong" (Which means six Banyan Trees) as an inscription.
Since that, the temple was called "Six Banyan Temple". A pagoda was later established and called by the multitude as "Colored Tower", featuring 1023 small Buddist figures of exquisite craftsmanship; together with other component parts, the pagoda weighs nearly 5 tons heavy. |
