Baciliao Putean Temple Introduction
Wen Wang Ye, accessible by boat, is located in Pao Dong Village, Sihhu, and is dedicated to the worship of Wen Fu Qian Sui. Paozi Liao once had ferry connections with Longmen Harbor in Penghu and thrived during that period. It is said that fishermen discovered a royal boat while catching sand shrimp, which contained the divine tablet and sacred letters of Wen Fu Qian Sui, and they worked together to bring it back for worship in Zhuang'an. During World War II, Wen Wang Ye instructed the villagers through a medium not to go outside at a specific date and time, helping them avoid the Allied bombing.
