Jinci Temple
Jinci Temple was originally built as an ancestral temple for the ruling family of the Jin State during the Zhou Dynasty (11th century BC to 256 BC).
The temple was dedicated to the worship of their ancestors and to preserve their legacy.
During the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534 AD), the temple was expanded and became a center for Confucian learning.
It was during this time that many of the temple’s most famous structures, including the Hall of Guan Yu and the Flying Apsaras, were built.Over the centuries, Jinci Temple has been expanded and renovated by various dynasties, including the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing. Today, the temple remains an important site of cultural and historical significance in China.
