Cijin Linshui Temple, Chinese temple in Cijin District, Taiwan

The Linshui Temple features traditional architectural elements with a main prayer hall, decorated entrance gates, and ornate interior designs displaying Taiwanese craftsmanship.

Founded in 1736, the temple underwent substantial reconstruction in 1983, maintaining its role as a center for religious practices in the Cijin community.

The temple honors Lady Linshui, the Goddess of Birth and Fertility, represented with 36 assistant statues corresponding to each month of the year.

The temple stands on Cijin Island, accessible through regular ferry services from Kaohsiung, with local food markets and shops in the surrounding area.

Families seeking blessings for fertility and safe childbirth visit the temple throughout the year, continuing centuries-old traditions in modern Taiwan.
