Tam Kung Temple, Chinese temple in Coloane, Macau.
The temple contains a central altar with a statue of Tam Kung and multiple traditional decorative elements throughout its chambers and corridors.
The temple was constructed in 1862 during the Portuguese administration of Macau, serving as a spiritual center for the local maritime community.
Local residents perform rituals on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month to honor Tam Kung, who is believed to protect sailors.
The temple opens daily without entrance fees, allowing visitors to observe traditional Chinese religious practices and maritime cultural elements.
A dragon boat made from whale bone sits at the temple's main altar, alongside a bronze spouting bowl used in traditional ceremonies.
