Fuhu Temple is an important Buddhist Temple at the foot of Emei Mountain in Sichuan Province. It was built during the Tang Dynasty period of 618-907 A.D., originally named Shenlong Tong. Because there are always tigers on the mountain, it's been renamed Fuhu Temple. The temple is bright and is encircled by lofty trees; it was rebuilt in earlier times during the Qing Dynasty of 1636-1911 A.D.
