Zhengyi Temple Theatre
Zhengyi Temple Theatre here refers to the 300-year old opera house in a temple-turned guildhall in Beijing, which is often translated as Zhengyici Beijing Opera Theatre, Zhengyici Peking Opera Theatre, Zhengyici Theatre, Temple Theatre Beijing Opera House and etc.
Why Zhengyi Temple?
“Zhengyici” in Chinese means “Zhengyi Temple”. “Zhengyi” refers to an imaginary figure in Chinese history in the name of Zhao Gongming, who was bestowed as Zhengyi Xuantan, a guardian of Taoism and later was worshipped as God of Fortune. In 1667, the sixth year of Emperor Kangxi’s reign, a host of businessmen from Zhejiang Province collectively built a guildhall inside a Ming Dynasty temple. The guildhall was called “Bank Guildhall”, or “Zhejiang Banks Guildhall”, a temple guildhall. In the temple guildhall, Zhengyi Xuantan (the God of Fortune) was worshipped, hence Zhengyi Temple.
