Tin Hau Temple, Mazu temple in Joss House Bay, Hong Kong.

Tin Hau Temple stands on a raised terrace above a stepped stone seawall at Joss House Bay. Its main hall has green tiled roofs with upturned eaves and white ridge ornaments, fronted by a white balustrade; below the roofline a pink facade section bears large white Chinese characters. A two-story section to the left has a red-tiled roof, and wide stone stairs lead from the water to the terrace.

The temple is said to have been built in 1266 by Lam Tao-yi, during the Southern Song dynasty. The Lam clan managed it until 1939, when the Chinese Temples Committee took over. It was repaired in 1840, 1877, 1962 and 2009, and was declared a monument on 20 October 2023.

The temple's name Tai Miu, "Great Temple", gave Joss House Bay its Chinese name Tai Miu Wan, "bay of the large temple". On the 23rd day of the third lunar month, Tin Hau's birthday, crowds of 30,000 to 50,000 attend; worshippers also visit the side hall to touch the Dragon Bed to pray for children or wealth.

The temple sits at the foot of the hills at Joss House Bay, reached by about ten minutes of stairs down from the Tai Miu Wan stop on green minibus route 16 from Po Lam, passing the rock inscription on the way. The High Junk Peak Hiking Trail also leads there overland. A public pier stands directly in front of the temple, and a ferry runs from North Point Ferry Pier on Tin Hau's birthday.

Near the temple stands a rock bearing inscriptions from the 13th century, representing the oldest dated carved stone in Hong Kong. Many visitors overlook this modest artifact, even though it provides crucial evidence of the site's early history.
