Fung Ying Seen Koon, Taoist temple in Fanling, Hong Kong.
Fung Ying Seen Koon is a Taoist temple in Fanling built on a hillside with distinctive orange-tiled roofs and red stone pillars throughout its grounds. The complex contains multiple halls where different rituals and prayers take place, arranged across the sloping landscape.
The temple was founded in 1929 and follows the Quanzhen Longmen tradition of Taoism. Its name refers to two mythical islands in the Bohai Sea, which hold meaning in Taoist mythology.
The temple serves as a center for Taoist worship, with separate halls dedicated to different deities that visitors can explore at their own pace. Each space reflects how local people connect with specific spiritual figures through prayer and offerings.
The temple sits near Fanling MTR Station, making it easy to reach by public transport. Comfortable shoes are recommended since the grounds are on a slope with stairs connecting the different halls.
The grounds feature the Wall Tao Te Ching, which displays passages from a classic Taoist text teaching about health and living philosophy. This installation makes core teachings visible throughout the temple for visitors to encounter.
