Sicao Dazhong Temple, Chinese temple in Annan District, Tainan, Taiwan

The temple features eight hand-carved dragon columns at its entrance, with detailed dragon and tiger motifs decorating the opposite walls of the structure.

Built in 1699 during the Qing Dynasty's Kangxi reign, the temple honors Chen Tze, a Taiwanese general who fought against Dutch forces and became the Marshal of the Sea.

The temple contains multiple shrines dedicated to deities including Dazhong Yeh, Guanyin, Mazu, and the goddess of fertility, serving the spiritual needs of local residents.

Located at 360 Dazhong Road, the temple offers free entry throughout the day and maintains both indoor and outdoor seating areas for visitors.

An ossuary behind the temple preserves remains from the Battle of Baxemboy, connecting the site to regional military history.
