Wuhe Temple, Traditional temple in Nantun District, Taichung City, Taiwan

The temple exhibits classical Chinese architectural elements with three central halls and features multiple statues of Mazu in its main hall.

Established in 1726 by Qing Dynasty official Zhang Guo, who transported a Mazu statue from Quanzhou, marking the beginning of the settlement in Litoudian.

The temple holds regular Zixingxi performances during the third month of the lunar calendar, continuing a tradition connected to the deity Mazu.

The temple maintains protected monument status since 1985 under the Taichung City Government, ensuring preservation of its historical structures.

A wooden plaque from 1732, considered the oldest in Taichung, displays the inscription about blessings across Taiwan within the temple walls.
