Completed in 1917, this is now one of the most lively temples in Miaoli City. It was damaged in the 1935 Hsinchu-Taichung Earthquake and subsequently repaired. Yuqing Park (玉清公園) opened in front of the temple in 1987; it features a large statue of Guangong (關公) and a performance stage featuring oversize musical instruments.

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.
