九甲圍義山宮, Traditional temple in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

The temple features detailed stone carvings on its walls, traditional curved roofs with ornate tiles, and numerous statues of deities inside its chambers.

Built in the eighteenth century by settlers from Fujian province, the temple stood as a central gathering place for early Chinese immigrants in southern Taiwan.

The temple combines elements of Taoism and folk religion, with regular ceremonies where local residents participate in traditional rituals and prayers.

The temple opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with increased visitor numbers during morning prayers and major Chinese calendar festivals.

Local craftsmen maintain the temple's decorative elements using techniques passed down through generations, preserving traditional architectural methods.
