Tung Shan Temple, Grade III historic temple in Yuen Long District, Hong Kong.

Tung Shan Temple is a Mazu temple in Wing Ping Tsuen, San Tin, built in a three-hall plan from granite blocks, with a timber-framed roof and an internal courtyard. It stands near Castle Peak Road and is listed as a Grade III historic building.

The temple emerged from the maritime traditions of local fishing communities who relied on Mazu for protection at sea. Its Grade III heritage designation reflects the importance of preserving this site and the spiritual practices that shaped Hong Kong's coastal communities.

The temple's name links it to Wen Tianrui, styled Dongshan, ancestor of the Wen clan of San Tin; it is said to have been founded by the lineage founder Wen Shige. The building is a declared Grade III historic building, and the Tin Hau festival in the third lunar month draws the Wen villages of San Tin.

The temple stands in Wing Ping Tsuen, San Tin, beside Castle Peak Road, in the northern part of Yuen Long District. Buses running along Castle Peak Road stop nearby, and the temple is reached on foot from those stops. The building is a three-hall structure with a light well between the halls, so visitors pass through the central courtyard to see the granite walls and timber roof frame.

The temple's name honours Man Tin-sui, a Song dynasty official whose courtesy name was Tung Shan and who is regarded as the ancestor of the Man clan of the New Territories. The shrine in Wing Ping Tsuen was reportedly founded by Man Sai-ko, the lineage's founding ancestor in San Tin, which ties a Grade III historic building to one family's genealogy.
