Chih Ming Tang Introduction

The Qiming Hall, also known as the Martial Temple, is a place of worship that integrates Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism, honoring the saints of these three teachings. The main deities enshrined are Wen and Wu, with additional offerings to Yue Fei and Zheng Chenggong. It was established in the 25th year of the Guangxu era (1899) in the southwestern area of Lotus Pond. Its exterior is grand and majestic, adopting an Eastern palace architectural style. On the birthdays of the various gods, devotees hold elaborate ceremonies to welcome and honor the deities, making it one of the significant local festivals.
