Digital Archive of Chinese Buddhist Temple Gazetteers

This is the website for the Temple Gazetteer Project at
Dharma Drum Buddhist College. The project is funded by the
Chung-Hwa Institute of Buddhist Studies. The aim of the
project is to tap into this wealth of information in order
to deepen our understanding of Chinese Buddhist history.
Between 2007 and 2010, 237 gazetteers were digitized and
are distributed on this website. Of these 13 gazetteers
were digitized as full-text archives and marked up with
TEI/XML, identifying all persons and place names as well
as dates. A print edition of these enhanced versions is
under preparation.
