Yokohama Kuan Ti Miao, Chinese temple in Yokohama Chinatown, Japan

The temple features dragon marble slabs from Beijing at its entrance, with each piece weighing 4.5 tons and carved from single stone blocks.

Built in 1871, the temple underwent four reconstructions due to natural disasters and war, with the current structure dating from August 14, 1990.

The temple honors Guan Yu, a warrior turned deity who represents loyalty and courage, alongside other figures including the Jade Emperor and Earth Mother Goddess.

Visitors can obtain Chinese incense and gold offering paper at the information center, where staff provide guidance on worship procedures and fortune telling.

The temple's ceiling draws attention upward through its architectural design, representing the connection between earth and the celestial realm of the Jade Emperor.
