Tangdi Temple in Hongshang Village, Yangcheng, Shanxi

Built during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Tangdi Temple in Hongshang Village was renovated in the 19th year of the Daoguang reign. The temple consists of a stage, worship hall, main hall, and side rooms. Currently, the stage has mostly collapsed. The worship hall features exquisite dougong brackets and is supported by eight stone pillars with finely carved stone bases. On both sides of the worship hall are side rooms connected to two watchtowers. Tangdi Temple is grand in scale, with exquisite stone and wood carvings and carefully selected materials. Due to long-term neglect, it is now severely damaged. It is a key cultural relic protection unit in Yangcheng County.
