Zushi Temple, Chinese temple in Sanxia District, Taiwan

The Zushi Temple features three pairs of stone pillars at its entrance, along with octagonal twin-dragon pillars that demonstrate excellent stone craftsmanship.

Established in 1767, the temple underwent major renovations under the direction of architect Li Mei-shu, who transformed it into a significant religious structure.

The temple walls display detailed wooden carvings depicting scenes from classical Chinese literature, including Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Journey to the West.

Located near Sanxia Old Street, the temple remains open daily from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with free tour guides available at the counter.

The temple features a spiral caisson ceiling that requires protection from incense smoke, leading to specific preservation measures in the main hall.
