Jintai Temple
金台寺
A temple halfway up Huangyang Mountain in Doumen, with halls built into the slope. Visitors can climb the mountain for views over the Xijiang (West River) estuary.
Jintai Temple lies halfway up Huangyang Mountain in Doumen. Tradition says it was first built in the Yuan dynasty. Most of its halls today were restored or expanded in recent years and rise in tiers following the mountain, and a stream and ancient trees stand in front of the gate. A trail behind the temple leads to the main peak of Huangyang Mountain, where the open summit view takes in the water-town plains near the Xijiang (West River) estuary. Admission to the temple is free. It is popular with worshippers, especially on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month. The temple is about 5 km from Doumen Town.
