Tin Hau and Hip Tin Temples, Sai Kung, Chinese temple and Grade II historic building in Sai Kung Town, Hong Kong.
The temple complex consists of two adjacent structures: Tin Hau Temple dedicated to the sea goddess and Hip Tin Temple dedicated to the god of wealth.
Built between 1910 and 1920, these temples served the maritime community of Sai Kung, where fishermen sought protection for their seafaring activities.
The temples maintain traditional Chinese architectural elements with ornate decorations, intricate woodwork, and symbolic imagery representing their respective deities.
Located near Po Tung Road, the temples welcome visitors daily and feature altars where people perform rituals with incense and food offerings.
During the Tin Hau Festival on the 23rd day of the third lunar month, the temples become centers for ceremonial activities and community gatherings.
