Yuen Kwan Yi Tai Temple, Chinese temple in Yuen Long District, Hong Kong.

The Yuen Kwan Yi Tai Temple features traditional Chinese architectural elements with ornate wood carvings, decorative motifs, and multiple halls for different ceremonies.

Built in 1714, the temple received Grade I historic building status for its architectural significance and continues to serve as both a religious site and ancestral hall.

The temple honors two deities, Yuen Tai and Kwan Tai, reflecting the deep connection to Chinese spiritual practices maintained in Hong Kong.

Regular ceremonies take place throughout the lunar calendar year, with increased activity during major Chinese festivals when large numbers of worshippers gather.

The temple functions as a central meeting point for village gatherings, combining religious practices with community governance responsibilities.
