Guanyin Gumiao Temple (, also known as the Guangdong Guanyin Temple) is one of two major Chinese temples located within Latha Township in Yangon's Chinatown, along with Kheng Hock Keong. Located on Maha Bandula Road, the temple is dedicated to Guanyin, a Buddhist bodhisattva who corresponds to the Burmese Buddhist bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara (, Lawka Nat).
History The temple was founded by the Cantonese community of Yangon in 1823. It was destroyed by a fire in December 1855, and subsequently rebuilt between 1864 and 1868, with two additional brick buildings to the side built in 1872.
