Ping-Ting Fude Temple

Ping-Ting Fude Temple is a traditional Chinese temple in Taoyuan featuring elaborate carvings and decorative details that reflect regional craftsmanship throughout its structure. The building includes multiple halls and courtyards arranged in a typical layout for community worship spaces.

The shrine was originally built as a temple dedicated to three earth deities, but expanded under the direction of resident Yang Tian-tsai who was driven by a spiritual calling. His commitment to honoring a divine promise shaped the temple into its current form.

The temple serves as a gathering place for local residents seeking blessings related to farming and the fertility of the land. These practices remain woven into the community's seasonal rhythms.

The temple is accessible daily to visitors and located within reasonable reach from central areas of the city with various transportation links. Access to the main areas is straightforward, though some sections involve climbing steps.

The grounds contain a natural cold spring that was reportedly revealed through guidance from the Earth God, adding another layer of spiritual significance to the site. Visitors often seek out this spring for its purported restorative qualities.
