Wuchang Temple

Wuchang Temple became famous after the 1999 earthquake collapsed its lower floors, leaving the roof to stand in ruin. It now lies photogenically crumpled like a dishevelled king beside a newly built twin that has taken over the functions of the fallen temple. To reach the temple, turn right as you leave the Jiji Train Station and walk roughly 900m to Ba Zhang St (八張街). Turn left and walk another 900m.
