草漯保障宮, Buddhist temple in Guanyin District, Taiwan
The temple features nine dragon pillars measuring 38 feet in height, with columns crafted through traditional stonework techniques from Fujian Province.
Founded in 1854, the temple began with a Mazu statue discovered by a fisherman named Yang Ma-dou in 1826, which sailors previously kept on their boats.
The temple houses statues of Mazu, Guanyin, and the Birth Goddess, all carved from red camphor wood according to regional specifications.
The temple maintains regular hours from morning to evening, with increased visitor numbers during Chinese New Year and the Ghost Festival celebrations.
The current structure, completed in 2003, required an investment of 250 million New Taiwan dollars and incorporates traditional stone craftsmanship.
