Dalongdong FuShou Temple, Buddhist temple in Datong District, Taipei, Taiwan.

The temple displays detailed stone carvings, dragon columns, stone lions, and numerous wood, stone, and clay artistic elements throughout its structure.

The temple began as a wooden shrine in 1742, constructed by immigrants from Tong'an, Xiamen, Fujian, before undergoing major reconstruction in the early 19th century.

The Baosheng Cultural Festival occurs on the third lunar month's fourteenth day, featuring parades, fire-walking ceremonies, lion dances, and traditional opera performances.

Visitors can reach the temple by taking the MRT Red Line to Yuanshan Station or using bus routes 33, 2, 9, 41, 215, and 288.

The temple follows Confucian architectural principles with buildings arranged in descending height order and incorporates Feng-Shui practices through its southward orientation.
