Templo de Na Tcha do Monte, Chinese temple on Calçada das Verdades, Sé, Macau, China

The Templo de Na Tcha do Monte is a small square pavilion, not a full temple building, in Macau's Sé district. Its hip roof has green tiles edged in red and gold, and a black panel above the entrance reads 哪咤古廟 in gold characters. Inside, a granite shrine, altar and incense burner stand beside a large natural rock.

The shrine was first built in 1679, the 18th year of the Kangxi reign, as a simple stone hut beside a rock where villagers said a boy in a child's apron and topknot had appeared and then departed on wind-and-fire wheels. During the Guangxu reign, plague swept Macau but spared Persimmon Hill, so residents rebuilt it in 1898 and named it Na Tcha Old Temple. In 1992 the Portuguese administration classified it as a monument.

The temple's name comes from the persimmon-covered hill where villagers saw a child in a dudou apron and topknots playing with local children, then ride away on wind-and-fire wheels. Each year on the 18th day of the fifth lunar month, the Na Tcha festival, the managing committee organizes a procession through the streets.

The shrine is a small open square pavilion on Calçada das Verdades on Persimmon Hill, reached on foot via stepped lanes; the entrance is open and the interior is dark, so visit in daylight. A row of black and dark red bollards marks the street edge in front of the facade.

The temple's main structure is a square pavilion rather than a full temple building, with a stone shrine, altar and incense burner inside. Beside the shrine lies a large natural boulder, said to be the stone where Na Tcha appeared; four stone columns bearing couplets support the roof.
