Dong Yue Miao, also called Dongyue Temple, is a grand Chinese temple on the eastern side of Beijing. It is named after the Taoist Eastern Park, otherwise known as Mount Taishan.
Dong Yue Miao was built in the 14th century. In 1999 a massive restoration project brought it into the 21st century.
From the main courtyard, you enter the Hall of Tai Shan. Here, you can see the statues of the god of Tai Shan with his attendants. There is a cloister lined with the pantheon of Taoist gods and demons. Thankfully, there are also captions explaining each of them in English.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
