Sze Yup Temple, Taoist temple in Glebe, Australia
The Sze Yup Temple features a central pavilion with two separate halls, displaying traditional Chinese architectural elements and a green tiled roof.
Chinese immigrants from the Sze Yup region of Guangdong province constructed this temple in 1898, purchasing the land for £325.
The temple honors Kwun Ti, a warrior from the Three Kingdoms period, who represents loyalty and strength for the Chinese community.
Located near Rozelle Bay, the temple maintains regular opening hours and provides facilities for traditional ceremonies and community gatherings.
Two intricately carved columns from 1898, originally intended for a nearby chapel, stand within the temple due to their excessive height.
