Fayuan Temple was built during the Tang Dynasty (618-917). Situated south of Jiaozi Alley outside Xuanwumen, this is the oldest ancient Buddhist temple in Beijing. It also houses the China Buddhist Association, the China Buddhism Institution and the China Buddhism Library and Relic Center, thus serving as an important venue for nurturing young monks and Buddhist research.
