Xiluo Temple, Chinese temple in West Central District, Taiwan.

Xiluo Temple features traditional Chinese architecture with intricate wooden carvings, decorative tiles, ceremonial halls, and multiple incense burners spread across its grounds.

Founded in 1718 during Emperor Kangxi's reign, the temple initially housed Guang Ze Zun Wang deity brought by six Guo clan families from Quanzhou Prefecture in China.

The temple honors Guang Ze Zun Wang, depicted as a young man with wide eyes and one raised leg, recognized as a fortune deity in Minnan regions.

Located at 90 Heping Street in Tainan's West Central District, the temple welcomes visitors who can observe daily worship rituals and participate in religious ceremonies.

During the deity's birthdays in February and August, the temple performs fenling rituals, dividing the deity's spirit into smaller statues for devotees.
