Hello, everybody!

We led all of you to Man Ho Temple in Tai PO.

Today, we would like to introduce one more temples here.
Have you seen a temple on the boat?
If you haven't, come on!Let me show you!!^^

In Hong Kong, there is a Tin Hau Temple, which is located on a China wooden boat, stay in the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and the Aberdeen Typhoon Shelter.

In fact, it was originally located in the Pearl River Delta between Hong Kong and Macau. However, the Japanese site caused serious destruction to the Tin Hau Temple. After that, fishermen invest some money to build a new temple on the boat, and established the Water Triangle Tin Hau Temple (水上天后廟).

From 1955 to now on, this temple have been changed 3 boats, and they just allow only 9 worshipers on the boat at the same time.

ps. If you want to visit or worship, you need to go there by
     sampan, it takes $5.
