Biyun Temple Introduction
The spiritual center of the residents of Xiao Liuqiu! Biyun Temple is located in the heart of Liuqiu Island and was built in 1736, making it over 200 years old. It is dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy, Guanyin. The residents of Xiao Liuqiu come to this temple for various occasions such as weddings, funerals, choosing auspicious dates, baby's first-month celebrations, seeking love, inquiring about illnesses, and hoping for bountiful fishing trips. Life events, joy and sorrow, are closely intertwined with Guanyin, and residents often seek divination to request guidance from the deities, making it a significant spiritual refuge for the community! In 1980, the late President Chiang Ching-kuo visited this temple and donated NT$1,000 as an offering, allowing its reputation to spread throughout Taiwan! Below Biyun Temple, there is a wooden boardwalk to observe the bamboo forest ecology. Strolling through, sunlight filters through the trees, creating a refreshing atmosphere. At night, the soft glow of lights illuminates the bamboo forest, accompanied by the sound of flowing water and the gentle rustling of bamboo swaying in the wind, interspersed with the chorus of frogs.
