Located in Kaiteng proper, Daxrangguo Temple was first built in 555,
the sixth year during Emperor Tianbao's reign of the Northern Qi period
(550-577), but was destroyed in the late Ming Dynasty. After reconstruction,
it has such structures as the Hall of Heavenly Kings, Mahavira Hall,
Tripitaka Pavilion, and a statue of Goddess of Mercy with 1,000 hands
and 1,000 eyes. On the eastern site of the main gate there is a 5-ton
bell.
