Yeung Hau Temple, Tai O, Chinese temple in Tai O, Hong Kong.

The temple compound features a main temple building and side halls constructed using grey brick, granite, and timber materials with granite columns.

Built before 1699, the temple contains an iron bell cast during the 38th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing dynasty.

The temple maintains strong connections with the Tai O Dragon Boat Water Parade, a traditional event recognized in China's national intangible cultural heritage.

Located on Lantau Island, the temple opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM for both religious ceremonies and visitor observations.

The temple roof displays Shiwan ceramic figurines that tell Chinese folk stories through detailed sculptures on the entrance hall ridge.
