Daitian Temple Introduction
The Dongmen Daitian Temple, although its exact founding date is not clearly recorded, is believed to have originated in the Ming Dynasty. Initially, it was dedicated to Wang Ye Wen, but later, when King Chi passed through this area on his celestial patrol, Wang Ye Wen invited him to stay and oversee the local affairs, together providing protection for the people. The temple primarily worships King Chi, who is said to have been directly derived from the "Yuanwei Hall" in Maxiang. In recent times, the Daitian Temple underwent a minor renovation in the 67th year of the Republic of China and was completely rebuilt in the 82nd year. Every year on the 18th day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, the Daitian Temple holds a festival, attracting countless faithful visitors to worship and pray for blessings.
