Yuanli Cihe Temple, Chinese temple in Yuanli Township, Taiwan.

The temple displays traditional architectural designs with detailed carvings, red columns, and ornate roof decorations that represent Chinese religious architecture.

Founded in 1773, Yuanli Cihe Temple became a central place of worship for local residents who sought protection from the sea goddess Mazu.

Regular ceremonies take place at the temple, where community members gather to honor deities through traditional rituals and offerings throughout the year.

The temple maintains regular opening hours and provides space for individual prayer, group ceremonies, and religious consultations with temple caretakers.

Two ancient Chinese banyan trees marked the temple entrance until 2015, when Typhoon Soudelor destroyed one of these century-old landmarks.
