Tianhou Temple
Tianhou Temple-November 2024
Nov 21, 2024

  This celebrated 17th-century Matsu temple sports high, sweeping swallowtail eaves and a wealth of gorgeous Chaozhou-style woodcarvings, mostly from a 1922 restoration.

  A stele found here was inscribed with a 1604 order from General Shen Young demanding that the Dutch get out of Taiwan, a discovery that gives some credence to local claims that this is the oldest Matsu temple in Taiwan.
