Tianmen Temple, Taoist temple in Shetou, Taiwan.

The Tianmen Temple features traditional architectural elements with red columns, curved roofs, and stone carvings depicting religious symbols and mythological creatures.

Constructed in 1755, the temple stands as a testament to Chinese settlers from Fujian who established religious foundations in the Changhua County region.

The temple focuses on the worship of Mazu, where local residents conduct ceremonies with incense offerings and participate in religious festivals throughout the year.

Located at coordinates 23.9167, 120.5822, the temple welcomes visitors during daylight hours and requires modest attire when entering the main prayer halls.

During the Lantern Festival, the temple grounds transform into a gathering space where hundreds of lanterns illuminate the evening celebrations.
