Penghu Fongshen Temple, Chinese temple in Chongching Village, Taiwan

The Penghu Fongshen Temple displays traditional wooden carvings, decorative paintings, and stone craftsmanship throughout its architectural structure, reflecting Taoist design principles.

Established in 1790, the temple endured damage during the Sino-French War of 1885, leading to repairs and subsequent elevation of Chenghuangye's status by Emperor Guangxu.

The temple maintains the position of primary worship site for Chenghuangye, the Lord of City deity, who oversees the spiritual matters of the administrative district.

Located in Penghu County, the temple welcomes visitors throughout the day, with multiple restaurants and local establishments within walking distance of the main entrance.

The temple contains several historical signboards that present specific messages about repentance and worship, contributing to its educational and spiritual functions.
