Jinshan Cihou Temple Introduction

Cihuo Temple, located on Xiajie Street in Jinshan, has a history of two hundred years and is the largest temple in Jinshan. It primarily enshrines the golden-faced Mazu and serves as a center of local worship, often referred to by locals as the "Grand Temple." The artistic expressions in every aspect, from the foundation, roof trusses, roof, to the body of the building, are intricately carved and worthy of careful appreciation. The octagonal main hall features dragon pillars, which are exquisite craftsmanship from the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty and are quite rare.
