Tin Hau Temple, Sham Shui Po

Tin Hau Temple, Sham Shui Po, Grade III historic temple in Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong

Tin Hau Temple, Sham Shui Po stands on Yee Kuk Street facing south, built in 1901 and restored in 1990. Its central doorway carries a couplet dated 1913, and a bronze bell cast in 1915 is kept inside. Besides Tin Hau, the halls honour Bao Gong, Guanyin, Guan Di and Tai Sui.

The temple was built in 1901, in the 27th year of the Guangxu reign of the Qing dynasty, facing south on Yee Kuk Street. It was renovated in 1990 and is now managed by the Chinese Temples Committee. A public clinic, the Sham Shui Po Public Dispensary, once operated inside the temple.

The temple's name honours Tin Hau, the sea goddess, but its main door bears a couplet carved in 1913 that praises her power and universal blessings. Inside, a bronze bell cast in 1915 still hangs. Besides Tin Hau, worshippers also honour Bao Gong, Guanyin, Guan Di and Tai Sui here.

The temple faces south on Yee Kuk Street in Sham Shui Po and can be reached by MTR, bus or minibus. It is managed by the Chinese Temples Committee. Dress modestly and keep quiet if worship is under way.

The temple houses multiple deities under one roof, including Doumu, Tai Sui, and Kwan Tai, each addressing different needs for protection and guidance. This combination of different forms of worship in a single place reflects local practice.
