Dalongdong Baoan Temple, Taiwanese temple in Datong District, Taipei, Taiwan.

The temple features detailed stone carvings depicting animals and plants, with multiple halls housing religious artifacts and traditional decorative elements throughout the structure.

Established in 1742 by immigrants from Tong-An County, the temple expanded from a small shrine to accommodate the growing population of Chinese settlers in the area.

The temple dedicates its main altar to Baosheng Dadi, the God of Medicine, while additional spaces honor various Taoist deities associated with health and protection.

Visitors can reach the temple by taking the Taipei Metro to Yuanshan Station or Daqiaotou Station, followed by a short walk through the neighborhood streets.

The temple received recognition from UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Awards for its preservation of traditional architectural techniques and religious customs.
