Taichung Confucius Temple Introduction
According to legend, the City God, who has always been worshiped by the people, is the guardian of the place. The City God Temple on Hezuo Street in Taichung City is said to enshrine the City God who oversees the local administration of Taichung. The temple was established in the 10th year of the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty and relocated to its current site in the 10th year of the Taisho era (1921). It has undergone several renovations and remains a flourishing site of worship to this day. Under the shining sun, the ornate ceramic tiles on the temple roof gleam brightly, complementing the lifelike statues within. The annual festival for the City God is celebrated on the 15th day of the 6th lunar month.
