Yuhuang Pavilion of Yanqing Temple

Located at a southwest outskirt of Kaifeng City, Yanqing Temple plays an important role as a significant temple in the history of Taoism in China. Having undergone several destructions and reconstructions, only Yuhuang Pavilion of the temple remains at present.

Facing to the south, the pavilion is about 13m high and completely uses colorful bricks with a circular top and square body. The building has three storeys, on the top of which is an octagonal pavilion. Although its appearance assumes the frame similar to timberwork, it is very peculiar that all the girders and purlins cannot be seen.
