Jia Dao (賈島, 779-843) was a Chinese poet born in Hebei. After a period as a Buddhist monk, he went to Chang'an. He became one of Han Yu's disciples, but failed the jinshi exam several times. He wrote both discursive gushi and lyric jintishi. His works were criticised as "thin" by Su Shi, and some other commentators have considered them limited and artificial.Template:China-writer-stub Template:Poetry-stub
