Chaozhou Kaiyuan Temple Taifo Temple Chaozhou Kaiyuan Temple Taifo Temple is located on the east side of the Hanjiang Bridge, opposite Huiru Park. It is the first large-scale Thai-style Buddhist temple in China built by the overseas Chinese and the great philanthropist Xie Huiru (1913-1996), and was completed in 1992. This building complex imitating Thailand Yunshi Temple is very rich in Thai characteristics. The multi-faceted roof is decorated with fish scales and yellow graphics with sealing boards. The poles and corners are auspicious. The decoration of the gables and the top shape of the doors and windows concentrates the ancient Thai plastic arts, which fully reflects the majesty, Ingenious exotic.
Taifo Temple is not in Kaiyuan Temple, but stand alone on the east side of Hanjiang Bridge, opposite Huiru Park. From Kaiyuan Temple to Chengnan Primary School, walk more than 600 meters, take No. 8 bus or No. 1 bus directly. Taifo Hall is the first Thai-style Buddhist hall with unique tropical flavor in Chinese Buddhism. It has a large scale and beautiful architecture. I can feel the exotic style here without going abroad. This is the most surprising discovery I have ever made in Chaozhou.
