Шаблон:Infobox religious building Haihui Temple (Шаблон:Zh) is a Buddhist temple located in Yuhu District, Xiangtan, Hunan, China. It is the site of Xiangtan Buddhist Association.

History

According to the Xiangtan County Annals, the temple's history stretches back to the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368), founded by Shi Puzhong (Шаблон:Zh). It was rebuilt by Shi Zongyuan (Шаблон:Zh) during the late Ming dynasty (1368–1644). At that time, there are two branch temples under its administration, namely Daofeng Temple (Шаблон:Zh) and Juelin Temple (Шаблон:Zh).

After the establishment of the Republic of China in 1912, a Buddhist school was set up in the temple. In 1917, it became the Haihui School (Шаблон:Zh). The temple was restored by Shi Lingwu (Шаблон:Zh) in the 1930s. Shi Jing'an, the Venerable Master of the Buddhist Association of the Republic of China, once lived here.

After the founding of the Communist State, in 1952, due to no freedom of religious belief in China, two Buddhist nuns, Shi Liancang (Шаблон:Zh) and Shi Shaozong (Шаблон:Zh), forced to use the temple for producting cotton fabrics. In 1962, it was designated as a provincial cultural relic preservation organ by the Hunan government. During the ten-year Cultural Revolution, it was devastated by the Red Guards. After the 3rd Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, according to a policy of some religious freedom, the temple was refurbished by Shi Shaozong and was officially reopened to the public. In 1995, Hunan government listed it as a "Key Buddhist Temple in Hunan Province".
