坐落于昆明东南郊的官渡古镇是一个集文化与历史于一身的小镇。

官渡古镇原名“窝洞”，曾是滇池边一个渔村。早在唐代，南诏国（公元738-937）官员

官渡作为风景旅游名胜区，成为达官贵人修建行宫别墅，名流贤达光顾流连的宝地。“多少行人此来往，马蹄踏破五更霜”，“此地酒帘邀我醉，隔船笙鼓送我归”，古老的官渡沉浸在一片丝竹管弦之声中。

当然，最早在此驻足的，不仅有南诏、大理国的王公贵族及其侍从，还有与他们形影相随的宗教文化。官渡建造时间最早的寺庙是始建于唐朝的供奉摩诃迦罗（大黑天神）的土主庙和宋代的法定寺。现在的土主庙大殿体量较大，前廊后厦，穿斗式七檀梁架结构，特别是大殿正面屋檐下的清式九踩四翘如意斗拱，规模宏丽，繁富华美。法定寺体量不大，但举架较高。斗拱出45度翼形拱，富于装饰。正面外檐装饰华丽，明间檐下饰双凤朝阳透雕，檐柱顶端饰木雕麒麟，四角梁出头刻成凤形状，造形生动，仍然保留了宋代建筑的风貌，具较高建筑艺术价值。它们都是省级文物保护单位。
