Dingguang temple is located in the hillside of the ancient wood forest, with beautiful scenery and low spring. In 1985, it was approved to be opened as a place for religious activities, and a large-scale expansion was carried out, covering an area of more than 20 hectares. Its architecture converged the essence of art in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The hall of Mahatma is majestic, with the inscription "Mahatma hall" written by Zhao Puchu, chairman of China Buddhist Association, hanging on it; the stone statue of "Tathagata" Buddha, more than 10 meters high, sits in the main hall, on both sides of the eighteen Arhats.

The layout of Guanyin Pavilion, lecture hall, ancestral hall, sutra collection hall, Ford Pavilion and Zen hall around the main hall is reasonable and well designed.

After several years of wind and rain, wind, frost, snow, rain and torrent, dingguang temple and Guangdong Buddhist Institute can achieve today's achievements, thanks to the care of the party and government departments at all levels, and the enthusiastic support of the ten good faith.
