Founded in 1910 by Tong’an settlers in Luzhou, this Baosheng Dadi (保生大帝) temple was a major communal shrine for the villages of what was then called Heshangzhou (和尚洲), the older name for Luzhou. It was commissioned by Li Shuhua (李樹華), the same figure who built the adjacent Li Family Residence. Designated a municipal monument in 2016, the temple reopened in January 2021 after a six-year structural restoration.

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.
