Luchu Mazu Temple Introduction
During the Kangxi period, the number of settlers in the Luzhu area gradually increased. After their lives became more stable, in 1671, the Tianhou Temple was built on what is now Zhongshan Road. After experiencing multiple renovations and expansions, the number of worshippers increased. However, with the passage of time and the development of the streets in Luzhu, the temple space gradually became insufficient and could not be expanded further. Therefore, in 1979, under the guidance of the Virgin Mother, a new temple was constructed while preserving the old temple in the city, resulting in the coexistence of the old and new temple.
