Bangka Lungshan Temple, Buddhist and Taoist temple in Wanhua District, Taiwan

The temple features multiple halls adorned with carved stone columns, wooden panels, and ornamental dragon sculptures throughout its architectural design point.

Constructed in 1738 by Fujian settlers during the Qing dynasty, the temple underwent multiple reconstructions after earthquakes and World War II damages.

The temple serves as a spiritual center where followers practice both Buddhist and Taoist rituals, offering incense to Guanyin and other Chinese deities.

Located near Longshan Temple Station on the Taipei Metro, the temple opens daily from early morning until late evening for visitors and worshippers.

The temple combines three distinct religious traditions - Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism - within a single architectural complex.
