The Temple of the Six Banyan Trees or Liurong Temple is a Buddhist temple in Guangzhou, China, originally built in AD 537.[1]

The temple's proximity to foreign consulates in Guangzhou[2] has made it a regular destination for families participating in the international adoption[3] of children from China. Typically families receive blessings for their newly adopted children at this temple in front of the statue of Guanyin.[4]
