Long De Temple (Chi Kan) Introduction
Main Deity: Nezha (Third Prince) Festival Date: 23rd Day of the 5th Lunar Month. Built during the early Kangxi period, it has a history of about three hundred years. The temple land was donated by the wealthy Zhang Baimillion. The main deity worshipped is Nezha, and it has a very active incense offering, serving as the religious faith center for the villagers of Baisha and Chihkan. The temple has undergone several renovations, but the legendary deeds of Nezha are still fondly recounted by the villagers to this day.
The temple features Southern-style heavy construction, with the main ridge adorned by two dragons facing a three-star motif in cut tiles, a colorful phoenix spreading its wings, and a morning dragon coiling and resting, each showcasing their own unique grandeur.
