Pak She Tin Hau Temple, Mazu temple in Cheung Chau, Hong Kong.

Pak She Tin Hau Temple is a two-hall Tin Hau temple in northern Cheung Chau, Hong Kong, built on a simple axial plan with a main hall behind the entrance hall. It is a Grade II historic building and marks the northern boundary of Cheung Chau Market. A four-legged bronze censer cast in 1785 stands outside the door, inscribed with the characters for Cheung Chau.

The temple's oldest surviving object is a bronze bell cast in 1767, the 32nd year of the Qianlong reign, which is taken as evidence of its founding. It was rebuilt in 1889, the 15th year of the Guangxu reign, and again in 1968. A four-legged bronze censer outside the door, cast in 1785, bears the two characters for Cheung Chau.

The temple honours Tin Hau, goddess of the sea, and its name Pak She refers to the northern boundary of Cheung Chau's old market. A four-legged bronze censer cast in 1785 stands outside the door, inscribed with the characters for Cheung Chau.

A visit requires first taking a ferry from Pier 5 in Central to Cheung Chau, followed by a short walk through the local streets of the town. The temple is easily reachable on foot and operates around the community's ritual times, so visiting early in the day is best.

The temple's oldest object is a bronze bell cast in 1767, during the Qianlong reign of the Qing dynasty. A four-legged bronze tripod outside the door dates to 1785, also Qianlong era, and bears the two characters "長洲" (Cheung Chau) cast into it. The building was rebuilt in 1889 and again in 1968, and it is listed as a Grade II historic building.
