Wujia Xieshan Xinde Tang, Temple complex in Tainan, Taiwan.
Wujia Xieshan Xinde Tang is a multi-story temple complex in Tainan with dedicated spaces for different deities across its floors. The building spans four levels, with the City God Hall on the first floor and the Main Buddha Hall situated on the third floor.
The temple originated in 1915 when three founders established a divination hall guided by spiritual experiences. Over time this initial hall transformed into the larger temple complex that stands today with its expanded religious functions.
The temple blends Buddhist, Confucian, and folk religious traditions in its daily practice. Visitors can observe how different faiths coexist within the same halls, reflected in the variety of altars and the prayers offered by locals.
You can explore different prayer halls spread across four floors at your own pace. Taking time to visit each level helps you understand how the different spaces are organized and used.
The temple maintains rare Xiantian Dao ceremonial practices found in very few other temples across Taiwan. These specific rituals represent a distinctive religious tradition that visitors seldom encounter elsewhere on the island.
