The Shengji Bronze Bell (Chinese: 聖積銅鐘; pinyin Shèngjī Tóngzhōng) is a bronze temple bell that was formerly[citation needed] located at a Buddhist temple known as Shengji Temple on Mount Emei in Sichuan Province, China. However, Shengji Temple was destroyed in 1959 and the bell is currently located in Baoguo Temple.[citation needed] It has been a Provincial-Level Protected Cultural Relic of Sichuan Province since 2002,[1] and a Nationally Protected Cultural Relic of China since 2006.[2]
