Tin Hau Temple, Peng Chau, Temple shrine in Peng Chau, Hong Kong.

The Tin Hau Temple stands near Wing On Street, featuring stone tablets, traditional architectural elements, and decorative details characteristic of maritime religious structures.

Constructed in 1792 during the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, the temple contains a bronze bell from 1798 and received Grade II historic building status in 2010.

The temple serves as a central place of worship for the maritime community, with fishermen dedicating a five-foot-long fish bone as an offering for favorable conditions.

Visitors can reach the temple via regular ferry services from Central Pier No. 6 in Hong Kong, with journeys taking between 25 to 40 minutes.

The temple houses ancient divination bamboo slips that local residents consider particularly accurate for predicting future events and making important decisions.
