Xuanwang Temple (Chinese: 宣王宮; pinyin: Xuānwáng Gōng), formerly known as Yunti Academy (Chinese: 雲梯書院; pinyin: Yúntī Shūyuàn), is a temple in Xihu Township, Miaoli County, Taiwan. Established in 1829 as the first privately-owned school (known as a shuyuan) in Miaoli, it was subsequently converted into a temple of Confucius under pressure from the Japanese government. In the temple, a tower for joss paper named Jingshengting and a Tudigong shrine are protected as county-level historic buildings.
