Dingzun Fude Temple

Dingzun Fude Temple is a Taoist sanctuary in Keelung with multiple levels and shrines dedicated to various deities, including the Jade Emperor and Marshal Tian Du. The building also houses administrative offices alongside the religious spaces.

The sanctuary was founded in 1875 after a local merchant donated land for its construction. Following damage during World War II, it was fully rebuilt between 1957 and 1964.

The temple functions as a center where visitors perform daily rituals with food offerings and incense to honor local deities. These practices reflect how the community expresses its spiritual connection to the place.

The sanctuary is open during regular hours and offers parking for visitors. Weekends and traditional festivals attract larger crowds, so arriving early is helpful.

Stone carvings within the sanctuary display sea life and mythical creatures, reflecting its coastal location. These details connect Keelung's maritime identity with the spiritual practices of the place.
