Shangchen Tianhou Temple

Shangchen Tianhou Temple was first built in the 25th year of the Hongwu reign of the Ming dynasty. After people from Fujian moved to Shangchen Village, they brought Mazu incense with them and built a temple in the north of the village to worship Mazu. The temple was renovated and expanded in the 32nd year of the Wanli reign and the 13th year of the Qianlong reign. In 1976, the temple was restored, and the original Mazu statue was brought back for worship. Since then, the temple has been popular with worshippers. 🌟 Highlights: The temple was rebuilt and renovated again in 2008. The new Tianhou Temple is magnificent and unique. It has a three-room, two-hall layout, with a left and right wing and a rear hall. The temple features yellow glazed tiles, blue brick stone pillars, and a simple and rustic style that reflects the architectural style of Lingnan and Chaoshan. 📍 Address: Near 122 Nantidi Road, Shangchen Village, Chengdong Town, Lufeng City 💰 Admission: Free ⏳ Opening hours: All day The main deity of Tianhou Temple is Mazu, a famous coastal deity in China. Shangchen Tianhou Temple has historical and artistic value for the study of Mazu culture, folk beliefs, and temple architecture in coastal areas during the Ming dynasty. You are welcome to visit and pray for blessings.
