Geocache Description:

The stele image is gone!
Kaiyuan Temple is a national monument.
Opening time is 06:00~17:00 every day.

 

This was originally a villa built by Koxinga's son Cheng Jin for his mother in 1680.
It was rebuilt in 1690, and its name has been changed several times, that's Hai Huei Temple, Kai Yuan Temple and Haijin Temple.
It mainly worships Shakyamuni Buddha, and is the oldest monastery in Taiwan.
The temple is tranquil, with some old banyan trees grown high into the sky, the linden trees evergreen, and the white walls, red tiles and eaves, smooth ridges of the building resembling a pretty drawing.

At the STAGE1 you would see a stele and some elephants.
The stele image is gone!
The elephant image is gone!
