Wang Yangming Memorial Temple
阳明祠（扶风山）
A Qing-dynasty shrine on Fufeng Hill commemorating Wang Yangming, connected to the Yin Daozhen Shrine and Fufeng Temple, and the core of Guiyang's Yangming cultural heritage.
Wang Yangming Memorial Temple sits at the foot of Fufeng Hill, in the East Mountain area of Yunyan District. It was built in 1814, in the 19th year of the Jiaqing era of the Qing dynasty, to honor the Ming-era thinker Wang Yangming for his teaching and influence in Guizhou. Together with the Yin Daozhen Shrine and Fufeng Temple, it forms a complex of ancient buildings with courtyards stacked up the hillside. Features include the Osmanthus Hall, a stone statue of Master Yangming, and stelae from successive dynasties. There is also a Yangming culture exhibition hall. It is a national key cultural relic protection unit. Admission is low or free, depending on the site. It pairs well with a visit to Wenchang Pavilion. Getting there: take Metro Line 2 to Yangming Shrine Station, then walk about 5 minutes.
