鹿港本壇宮

Lukang Bentan Temple

June 12th, 2026

A small temple in Lukang, Changhua, dedicated to Qisheng Anjun (七省按君), an unusual deity venerated as a heaven-touring inspector of seven provinces who is said to bear the surname Zhu (祝) and given name Bailian (白蓮). Temple tradition holds that the tradition began when a spirit medium was possessed by the figure; the image was first kept in a private home before the temple was built around 1950. The adjacent plaza once served as a rehearsal ground for the Juyingshe (聚英社), a nanguan music ensemble. Despite its semi-abandoned appearance it is still taken care of by local residents.
