The majestic and exquisite Xianyou Wen Temple

Putian is known as the coastal Zou Lu, Xianyou is the best, and has nurtured 5 champions, 4 prime ministers, 11 Shangshu, 28 Shilang, and nearly 700 Jinshi in history, leading Fujian. From Xianyou Wen Temple, you can glimpse the atmosphere of 'respecting teachers and emphasizing education'. Xianyou Wen Temple began in the Tang Dynasty. The existing Dacheng Gate and Dacheng Hall are Ming and Qing buildings, which are majestic, elegant and solemn, and exquisite in craftsmanship. The 8 Panlong stone pillars in the front porch of Dacheng Hall and the front and rear halls of Dacheng Gate are particularly eye-catching, lifelike, and ingeniously crafted; the two brick carvings on the left and right walls of the front hall of Dacheng Gate are also very vivid, with full composition, realistic images, and delicate carving.
