Shihding Wulu Caishen Temple Introduction
Wulu Caishen Temple is a purely Taoist temple, where worshippers primarily seek financial fortune. This temple is particularly popular due to the presence of Golden Treasure Mountain, which resembles a gold ingot. In addition, the golden stove for burning joss paper, the incense burner, and the treasure basin, all modeled after gold ingots, symbolize wealth accumulation, making this Wulu Caishen Temple in northern Taiwan a hub of financial and noble fortune. The architectural features of Wulu Caishen Temple in Shiding are resplendently golden, with golden ingots present in various forms, including on columns, the gold stove, and decorations. The temple worships five deities: God of Wealth Zhao Gongming, Wealth-attracting Messenger, Lord of Treasure Jinbao, Lord of Rare Treasures Najin, and God of Good Fortune Lishi, catering to both regular and windfall wealth seekers. Visiting during the Lunar New Year allows one to experience a shimmering aura filled with auspicious vibes, not only bringing fortune but also allowing visitors to share in the temple's joyful atmosphere. If one wishes to seek "Wealth Gold," they can throw divination blocks to select a sacred cup and register their personal information at the altar to receive it. Additionally, visitors can exchange coins with the Tiger God for lucky money. Afterward, they can take a stroll in Shenkeng Old Street to indulge in various tofu delicacies, including fried stinky tofu, braised tofu, and tofu ice cream.
