Citou Tianyao Temple Introduction
The former Japanese prince's ruins is now the significant religious site of Tien Yao Temple, which dedicates its worship to Mazu, commonly known as the Mazu of Citong. It serves as the spiritual center of Citong City. During the Japanese colonial period, the original temple was demolished by the Japanese, and a monument called "North Shirakawa Palace Ruins Stele" was established on the original site to commemorate Prince Kitashirakawa Yoshihisa, who camped in Citong Lane during the military expedition to Taiwan in 1895.
