位于台中市北屯区健行路上，是福建临济宗僧人良达法师于1928年建，为鼓楼式建筑。殿宇气势雄伟，金碧辉煌。正殿供奉三尊释迦牟尼佛像和一尊古铜解梦观音像。殿右是一座圆锥型的七层宝塔，每一层都供有一尊七宝如来佛像。塔高23米，登塔可远眺碧绿的台中盆地及雄伟的中央山脉。宝觉寺左边有一座巨型弥勒佛塑像，高达27米，相当于八九层楼高，成为该寺的一大特征。
大佛前有一庭园广场，叫做“同心公园”，园内陈列许多小欢喜佛，还有一80年前的运煤火车头。古意盎然，常吸引游客的眼光。

A must visit for the religious and curious. Do mot be fooled: the big building covering the old temple is only the small thing to see. Go next door to the right and see the big guy.

Just seeing the big smiling Buddha makes you feel happy. Often overlooked is the main temple to the left as you enter the gate. Next to it is the lesser known Shinto shrine to the right of the main temple. It is a reminder of the time when the Japanese controlled the island from 1895 to 1945. It commemorates the soldiers fighting overseas in World War II. There has been construction since I was there last so there is probably more to see. A relatively short walk to the east is the Confucius Temple and Martyr's Shrine. You need to get some information on when they are open since in the past the Confucius temple was closed on Monday and the shrine only open on the weekend. You can easily spend a morning or afternoon in the area since there is a park between the two sites for sitting and relaxing.

I spent NT$135 by cab from CityInn Hotel Plus - Taichung to PaoChueh Temple because I was holding a luggage. Thereafter I took another cab (NT110) to GanCheng Station to take the Nantou Bus to CingJing.It was worth going because the view was beautiful and the environment was serene and spacious. The Happy Buddha was really really big and pictures taken were beautiful.

The Baojue temple near the Buda is really beautiful and well preserved.
