Yuk Hui Temple, Taoist temple in Cheung Chau, Hong Kong.
The temple features traditional Chinese architecture with green concave tiles, ceramic figures, and four stone lions guarding its entrance point.
Local fishermen constructed Yuk Hui Temple in 1783 after a plague outbreak ended in 1777, attributing the resolution to Pak Tai's intervention.
The temple hosts the annual Cheung Chau Bun Festival on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, featuring climbing competitions on bun towers.
The Chinese Temples Committee manages this Grade I historic building, which underwent extensive renovations between 1999 and 2003 costing 13 million HKD.
The temple houses an iron sword from the Song Dynasty that, according to local accounts, was once thrown into the sea to calm a storm.
