Dazang Longhua Temple 大藏龙华寺 in Beijing


During my stay in Beijing (Nov. 2016), I noticed a small temple named Dazang Longhua Temple 大藏龙华寺 in Houhai 后海 of Shichahai 什刹海 which is not open to the public. It was the family temple of the Manchu prince and regent Zaifeng 载沣. It was recorded as the subtemple of Nianhua Temple 拈花寺 which was rebuilt by Emperor Yongzheng 雍正. It is not clear if it is connected to the printing of the Dragon Canon 清龙藏.
