Lonely Planet review for Qinci Yangdian Temple

Shanghai's largest Taoist temple is, perhaps surprisingly, located in Pǔdōng. It's worth a perusal for its massive trinity of Taoist gods in the Hall of the Three Clear Ones (三清殿; Sānqīng Diàn), although the temple architecture is all recent (at the southern end of the temple grounds are what appears to be older, semi-destroyed temple halls).

At the rear of the temple is the humungous Hall for the Storing of Scriptures (藏经殿; Cángjìngdiàn) and up the stairs above the side halls is a huge glittering gathering of 61 gilded Taoist generals.
