Yunxiang Temple is located in Nanxiang Old Town and should be visited together with the Old Town and the nearby Guyi Garden.
Legend says Yunxiang Temple was built in the Liang Dynasty in the year 505. It was originally named Crane Nanxiang Temple (白鹤南翔寺) before it was changed to the name still in use today.
Most of the temple has been rebuilt in the years 2000~2004. The nearby Twin Pagodas give an impression of the original structure.
