Hung Shing Temple, Fuk Tsun Street

Hung Shing Temple, Fuk Tsun Street, Taoist temple in Tai Kok Tsui, Hong Kong.

The Hung Shing Temple on Fuk Tsun Street is a single-hall Taoist temple whose main altar honours Hung Shing, the sea god, with side altars to Ho Sin Koo, Kwun Yum, Nuwa, Bao Gong, Pak Tai, Di Zang, Zhun Ti and Wong Tai Sin. Inside are a bronze bell cast in 1882, the 1930 plaque marking its rebuilding and a stone inscription recording the restoration.

The temple was founded in 1881 as a shrine to honor the protector deity of seafarers. In 1930 it was relocated from its original village location to the current site on Fuk Tsun Street to accommodate urban development.

The temple's name recalls Fuk Tsun Heung, the village cleared in 1928; the street in front was named Fuk Tsun Street in its memory. In front stands a century-old wishing tree, a small-leaved banyan, where worshippers write wishes on cards, place them in bamboo tubes and hang them on the tree's iron railing.

The temple stands at Nos. 58–60 Fuk Tsun Street in Tai Kok Tsui, a short walk from the Tai Kok Tsui Road area; the street itself was named after the cleared village of Fuk Tsun Heung. In front of the entrance is a century-old weeping fig wishing tree: write a wish on a card, place it in a bamboo tube and hang it on the tree's iron railing.

This is the only Hung Shing temple located in urban Kowloon, distinguishing it from others of this kind found in the New Territories. This central location makes it a special place where traditional worship takes place amid modern urban activity.
