Completed in 1824 by donor Liang Xianrui (梁獻瑞) to enshrine the Quanzhou folk deity Guangze Zunwang (廣澤尊王), this two-hall shrine in Lukang absorbed Sufu Wangye (蘇府王爺) and other icons from Wanchun Temple (萬春宮) when that structure was demolished in the 1920s to make way for the Lukang Public Hall. The front hall was set back in 1990 to accommodate road widening, but the temple retained its Qing dynasty era plaques until a pre-dawn fire on August 24th, 2016, sparked by smouldering incense, destroyed most of the interior. Restoration ran from 2020 to 2022 and it has since reopened to the public.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
