Shamei Wanan Hall Introduction
According to the records of Kinmen County, the Shamee Wan'an Temple was built during the Yuan Dynasty, making it over 700 years old and the oldest Baosheng Emperor temple in Kinmen County. Baosheng Emperor is regarded as the "God of Medicine" in folk belief, commonly known as "Dadonggong," "Wu Zhenren," or "Hua Qiao Gong." In times when medical knowledge was not advanced, families with sick members would visit the temple to seek divine help, and it was believed to be highly effective. Thus, Baosheng Emperor became an important deity for the people of Kinmen, sought after for blessings and healing. After three reconstructions, the current location is where it was later relocated and rebuilt. In 2009, it was integrated into the local environment and planned as the "Wan'an Temple Origin Memorial Park," featuring a stone sculpture of Baosheng Emperor riding a white horse, a stele recording his life achievements, and a zodiac stone for fortune transformation, which was chosen as one of Taiwan's top religious sites.
