義塚大墓公外觀

Yizhong Big Tomb Temple, originally known as the Refugee Wanshan Common Grave, is also called Baijie Yizhong Big Tomb Temple, and is commonly referred to as Tucheng Big Tomb Temple or Big Tomb Temple. It is a famous cemetery and a Yong Gong Temple in northern Taiwan. During the Qing Dynasty, indigenous people from the Tucheng and Banqiao areas would often raid Han Chinese for money, food, and even resort to murder. Villagers worshiping the Yizhong Big Tomb Temple were believed to receive protection and were able to repel the indigenous raiders. As a result, local cultivators would rent farmland as offerings, leading to the temple's prosperity. Today, it has become a shared belief among the administrative districts of Tucheng, Banqiao, and Zhonghe, with the temple affairs jointly overseen by the mayors of these three districts. Before the 2010 Five Municipalities system reform, it was managed by the mayors of three county-administered cities.

Yizhong Tomb Park Introduction

Yizun Cemetery, originally known as the Refugee Wanshan Tomb and also referred to as the Biajie Yizun Cemetery, is commonly known as Tucheng Cemetery or Da Mukong. It is a famous burial site and a temple dedicated to the deity Zhengyi Gong in northern Taiwan. During the Qing dynasty, the indigenous people in the Tucheng and Banqiao areas would rob Han people of their money and food. It is said that the local villagers would worship Yizun Cemetery and receive protection, allowing them to repel the indigenous people. As a result, the local cultivators would rent farmland to pay for offerings, leading to a flourishing of worship. This site has become a common center of faith for the descendants of Minnan Zhangzhou people in Tucheng, Zhonghe, and Banqiao.
