Jingtu Temple

净土寺

A hilltop ancient temple in the Maiji Mountain scenic area, overlooking the forests of the Xiaolong Mountains. It is often visited together with Maiji Mountain and Xianren Cliff.

Jingtu Temple lies within the Maiji Mountain scenic area, on a hilltop about 1,600 meters above sea level. Its origins may go back to the Tang dynasty, but most of the surviving halls were rebuilt. The buildings are arranged in tiers that follow the lay of the land, surrounded by the dense forests of the Xiaolong Mountains. On a clear day the views are wide. The mountain path leading to the temple is steep. You can drive to a nearby parking area and walk up from there. It is about 10 kilometers from the Maiji Mountain Grottoes and about 5 kilometers from Xianren Cliff, so the three can be visited together. Entry fees vary, so check on site.
