Fenglian Mountain Muma Hou Shrine Introduction
The temple dedicated to "Kaiwu Enzhu" Chen Yuan is a traditional three-section temple, which was rebuilt during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty and is listed as a county-designated historical site. According to legend, Chen Yuan frequently manifested to expel Japanese pirates and protect the villagers, prompting the imperial court to order the construction of a grand temple with seven courtyards and to bestow the plaque "Fu Ji," and posthumously confer him the title "Fuyou Shenghou," which is the origin of the Muma Hou Shrine. Inside the temple, there are ancient plaques and monuments from the Qing Dynasty, as well as intricately crafted dragon and tiger walls on both sides and beautiful detailed sculptures on the roof that are worth close inspection.
