Chen Dexing Ancestral Hall, Ancestral hall in Datong District Taipei, Taiwan.

The Chen Dexing Ancestral Hall features traditional southern Fujian architecture with wooden carvings and a double-eaved hip-and-gable roof design.

Built in 1892, the hall was relocated from its original site during Japanese rule and reconstructed in 1911 at its current location in Datong District.

The hall maintains traditional Chinese ancestral veneration practices through ceremonies and gatherings that connect generations of the Chen family.

Visitors can reach the ancestral hall by taking the Taipei Metro to Shuanglian Station and walking a short distance to the site.

The hall contains a notable stone pillar decorated with twin-dragon patterns, representing early modern Taiwanese architectural craftsmanship.
