Fengshan Tian Gong Temple Introduction

The magnificent "Fengyi Yuhuang Temple," commonly known as Fengshan Tian Gong Temple, dates back to 1798 and is located between Guangming Road and Zhongzheng Road in Fengshan District. Dedicated to the Jade Emperor, the temple originally started as a thatched structure on earth steps, but due to its ancient charm and efficacy, it gradually became quite popular, leading to the impressive scale it has today. The temple features a two-story architectural style typical of southern Chinese palaces, with intricately carved pillars and grand aesthetics. The temple's roof is adorned with the three deities of fortune, prosperity, and longevity, as well as decorative dragons and phoenixes made of colorful ceramic mosaic, all of which are meticulously crafted and striking. Inside the temple, the most famous features include a plaque urging good conduct and the vivid stone inlays depicting various deities. Other wood and stone sculptures are also noteworthy, creating a religious artistic atmosphere both inside and out. Besides granting blessings to the faithful, the Tian Gong Temple is also recognized as a benevolent temple in the Fengshan area, with initiatives such as establishing a library and offering scholarships to help local underprivileged students and disaster relief, attracting many devotees who come to pay their respects.
