Neitianhou Temple, Religious temple in Hsinchu City, Taiwan.

The Neitianhou Temple features multiple halls with intricate carvings depicting deities and mythological figures on walls, columns, and doorways throughout the structure.

Established in 1748 during the Qing Dynasty period, this temple underwent several renovations while maintaining its original architectural elements and religious purpose.

Local residents gather at Neitianhou Temple to perform traditional rituals, including incense burning and food offerings to honor Ma Zu, the goddess of the sea.

Visitors can reach the temple by public transportation from central Hsinchu, with regular opening hours from early morning until evening throughout the year.

The temple stands next to the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, creating an intersection where traditional Chinese and Western religious architectures meet.
