Chi Nan Temple, Taoist temple in Wenshan District, Taiwan
The temple spreads across multiple levels on Houshan mountain slopes, featuring traditional Southern Chinese architecture with detailed stone carvings and red columns.
Founded in 1882, the temple's Chunyang Chapel was completed in 1890 with financial support from gold miners working in the Jinshan region.
The main shrine houses a statue of Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals, alongside chambers dedicated to the Jade Emperor and Buddhist deities.
Visitors can reach the temple via the Maokong Gondola's Zhinan Temple Station or take bus route 530 operated by Zhinan Bus Company.
The temple connects to Yuanzhen Pond through a thousand-step stairway, requiring an additional three hundred steps to reach the Chunyang Chapel entrance.
