Guandi Temple in Cuijiazhuang Village

On the way to Longmen Temple, near the source of the Red Flag Canal, you'll pass through Cuijiazhuang Village. By the roadside, you'll find a Guandi Temple. Unattended and unvisited, only the main hall remains, built in 1647 during the Qing Dynasty (Shunzhi reign). It has a single-eave hard-ridge roof and a width of three bays. The main gate is closed, bearing a plaque that reads "Loyalty and Righteousness Reach the Heavens." The inscriptions on the stone stele under the eaves in front of the hall have been systematically defaced, likely during a specific period in history. Two stone pillars stand tall before the gate, their bases intricately carved. The couplets on the pillars have faded, but the words are still clear: A Thousand Autumns of Righteous Fame Illuminate the Sun and Moon Ten Thousand Years of Loyal Soul Strengthen the Mountains and Rivers (However, the top and bottom lines are reversed.) 📍Address: Cuijiazhuang Village, Pingshun County, Changzhi City, Shanxi Province 🎫Tickets: Free 🈺Opening Hours: 🅿️Parking: None, roadside parking available (please be cautious) 🏆Designated as an Immovable Cultural Relic of Pingshun County
