Guandi Temple, Chinese temple in District 5, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Inside Guandi Temple, carved dragons and detailed altars stand alongside statues of Chinese deities and traditional red lanterns hanging from wooden beams.

The temple, constructed in the late 19th century, marks the establishment of Chinese immigrants in Ho Chi Minh City and their influence on local religious practices.

Worshippers follow specific rituals at the temple, including burning incense, offering fruits, and using red paper money to honor Guandi, a Chinese general.

The temple opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with increased visitor numbers during Chinese festivals, particularly around lunar new year celebrations.

A spring flows through the temple grounds, creating a water feature that integrates with the architectural elements and garden design.
