Hanshan-si, or Cold Mountain Temple, is a Buddhist temple associated with Hanshan and Shide, and located on Tiger Hill in Suzhou.
Originally established c. 509-519 as Miàolìpǔmíngtǎ-yuàn, the temple was used by Chan monks Hanshan and Shide in the late 8th or early 9th century, and thus came to be known as Hanshan-si (Hanshan Temple).
