Baofu Temple Introduction
Yonghe Baofu Temple primarily worships Baosheng Dadi. It has a history of over 200 years since being split from Dalongdong Baoan Temple, and it is a sacred place for the believers in the Shuanghe area to pray for safety, blessings, and tranquility. It was rebuilt in 2011, featuring a complicated roof structure, exquisite cut flower art on the temple's roof, wooden carvings of the coffered ceiling, intricate stone carvings on the dragon pillars, and vibrant paintings on the interior walls, all showcasing rich cultural and artistic value. The early settlers of Yonghe were mostly from Quanzhou and had great faith in Baosheng Dadi. At that time, Yonghe residents had to walk to Dalongdong Baoan Temple in Taipei City to worship Baosheng Dadi, which was not only a long journey, but also required them to wade through waters as no bridges were built. Therefore, the residents of Yonghe pooled their resources and finally managed to raise the funds to build the temple, thus bringing the deity from Baoan Temple to establish Yonghe Baofu Temple.
