Gaoming Temple (Chinese: 高明寺; pinyin: Gāomíng Sì) is a Buddhist temple located in Tiantai County, Zhejiang, China. It is a traditional temple of Tiantai Buddhism.

The temple traces its origins to the former "Youxi Daochang" (幽溪道场), founded by Tiantai master Zhiyi in the 6th century, and would later become the "Gaoming Temple" (高明寺) in the Tianyou period (904–907) of the Tang dynasty (618–907).
