Orthodox Luermen Sheng-Mu Temple

The Orthodox Luermen Sheng-Mu Temple features grand halls with classical northern Chinese architectural elements, bronze statues, and ornate decorative details across its five main buildings.

The temple's origins trace back to the 16th century, but it underwent reconstruction in 1975 after repeated flooding and relocation of sacred statues throughout its history.

The temple maintains the largest ceremonial Mazu statue with over 800 years of history, representing a central figure in Taiwanese maritime beliefs and traditions.

The temple complex includes a cultural museum, visitor accommodation facilities, and hosts regular ceremonies, with major celebrations during Chinese New Year attracting 300,000 participants.

This religious site contains the tallest Thousand Mile Eye and Fair Wind Ear bronze deity statues in the world, distinctive features of Mazu temple architecture.
