Ching Chung Koon

Ching Chung Koon, Taoist temple in Tuen Mun District, Hong Kong.

Ching Chung Koon is a Taoist temple in Tuen Mun District that spans a large grounds with multiple buildings, courtyards, and landscaped areas. The site features artificial hills, fishponds, and thousands of carefully maintained bonsai trees positioned throughout the complex.

Ching Chung Koon was founded in 1950 in Kowloon by 18 founders, among them Ho Kai-chung and Luk Chi-chun, as a temple of the Quanzhen Longmen school traced to Guangzhou's Zhibao Tai. The altar moved to Nathan Road in 1952, and in 1960 the group bought land at Ki Lun Wai in Tuen Mun for a permanent temple. A Kowloon branch and headquarters followed on Tai Nam Street in 1974.

The name 青松 means "evergreen pine, strong in old age". The temple belongs to the Quanzhen Longmen school, traced to the Zhizhen Terrace in Guangzhou. During Ching Ming and Chung Yeung, families visit the columbarium halls to remember ancestors. Each April the grounds host a bonsai exhibition of traditional Chinese potted trees, open free to the public.

The temple has walkways throughout for exploring, though some areas include stairs and uneven surfaces that require physical effort. It is advisable to wear shoes with good traction since paths can become slippery after rain.

The lanterns hanging in the temple came from Beijing's Imperial Palace, not from the Forbidden City as a diplomatic gift. They are among the treasures kept on the grounds, alongside the bone-ash houses where the remains of the dead are stored with photographs, names, birth and death dates and places of origin.

Hong Kong shows its real sides in the temples from the 19th century, in abandoned Hakka villages and on paths winding between the wooded mountains.
