The supreme Mazu Temple known as D Yigong is where all wishes are granted

The Nansha Mazu Temple is located at the southeast foot of Dajiao Mountain, adjacent to the Lingding Ocean where Wen Tianxiang left his poems of conviction, and faces Dongguan City across the sea. Its architectural scale is unrivaled among similar structures, earning it the reputation of 'The supreme Mazu Temple in the world.' As the goddess of China's coastal areas, most coastal residents believe in her and specifically come here to experience the profound religious culture of the Mazu Temple. In the past, traveling from Guangzhou's main urban area to the Nansha Mazu Temple always felt very far, but now it has become very convenient to get there by taking the Metro Line 4 to the Nansha Passenger Port Station and walking about 800 meters after exiting the station. This is also the only sea route from Guangzhou to the ocean. Following the river downstream from here leads to the Lingding Ocean, where Wen Tianxiang wrote a famous poem called 'Crossing the Lingding Ocean,' referring to the very Lingding Ocean here. The Nansha Mazu Temple is the largest Mazu temple in Southeast Asia, and the entire temple exudes a transcendent and extraordinary aura. The high-level temple plaza is also an excellent platform for sea viewing, offering a panoramic view of the magnificent seascape at the mouth of the Pearl River, with a very impressive visual effect. Where there is faith, there is devotion. Mazu protects the people and ships around Nansha. What remains is not only mythological stories but also the profound connection between the believers and Mazu, continuing the traditional Chinese cultural customs. If you pay attention to the information about the Mazu Temple in advance, grand ceremonies will be held for the Heavenly Queen on important festival days, such as the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month. For those interested in Mazu, no matter how good the pictures and texts are, they are not as good as personally visiting and truly experiencing the charm of Mazu culture. With such convenient transportation, why not take a trip?
