義塚大墓公外觀

Yizhong Great Tomb, originally known as the Refugee Manbansheng Tomb, also called Baijie Yizhong Great Tomb, commonly known as Tucheng Great Tomb, is a famous tomb and temple of the God of Righteousness in northern Taiwan. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the indigenous people in the Tucheng and Banqiao areas would raid Han people for money, food, and even commit murder. Villagers would worship the Yizhong Great Tomb to receive protection and repel the indigenous people. As a result, local cultivators offered their farmland rent as incense money, leading to a flourishing of worship. Today, it has become a shared belief among the administrative districts of Tucheng, Banqiao, and Zhonghe, and the temple affairs are collaboratively managed by the district chiefs of the three cities. Before the reorganization of the Five Municipalities in 2010, it was jointly managed by the mayors of the three county-administered cities.
