Introduction

Youmin Temple is located north of Bayi Park in Nanchang City, on the east bank of Donghu Lake. It was first built during the Tianjian period of the Southern Liang Dynasty and was originally a residence donated by Yuzhang Wang Wei to the monk Ge Yudan. Youmin Temple has a grand scale, and the front hall is filled with numerous Buddha statues and a thousand Buddha cylinders. Outside the cylinders, there are more than 90 Buddha statues, each with a different expression, ancient and dignified. The number of Buddha statues on the cylinders is also very rare in China. In the back hall of Youmin Temple, there is a solemn and majestic giant bronze Buddha statue, regarded as one of the more precious cultural relics. Next to Youmin Temple is a four-story octagonal bell tower, showing a tall and beautiful posture.
