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.
How to reach Dong Yue Miao
Dong Yue Miao is located at 141 Chaoyang Men Wai Dajie, Chaoyang. Take the subway to the Chaoyang Men station. The temple is open from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Tuesdays to Sundays.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
