Tai Wong Yeh Temple, Chinese temple in Tai Po District, Hong Kong

The Tai Wong Yeh Temple stands near the Island House Interchange, serving as a spiritual center for fishermen in the Tolo Harbour area.

During the mid-Qing Dynasty, villagers from Chik Mei erected a stone tablet on the northern shore, which later developed into the current temple structure.

The temple holds annual celebrations during the fifth lunar month, featuring ten days of Cantonese operas and traditional ceremonies for the fishing community.

The temple coordinates at 22.44542 latitude and 114.17795 longitude allow visitors to locate it through the HKeMobility application for transportation planning.

Five Hoklo clans maintain the temple traditions and organize sacrificial practices involving live pigs, roast pigs, fruits, and steamed buns during festivals.
