Jiali Jintang Temple, Chinese temple in Jiali District, Taiwan.

The Jiali Jintang Temple stands on Zhongshan Road and accommodates three main deities known as the Zhu, Lei, and Yin Royal Lords.

Founded in 1698, the temple originated when early settlers brought statues of Lord Xiao and Guanyin across the Taiwan Strait for protection during sea voyages.

The temple maintains regular ceremonies where devotees from seventeen neighborhoods and twenty-four villages participate in traditional processions spanning several kilometers.

The temple receives daily visitors and holds major celebrations on the fifteenth and sixteenth days of the first lunar month.

The temple features intricate cut-and-paste artwork created by master craftsman He Jinlong during the 1928 renovation, representing traditional Chaozhou architectural style.
