Lonely Planet review for Qinciyang Temple

Shànghǎi’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, semidestroyed temple halls). At the rear of the temple is the humungous Hall for the Storing of Scriptures ( 藏经 殿; Cángjīng Diàn) and up the stairs above the side halls is a huge glittering gathering of 61 gilded Taoist generals.
