Hsihsi Beiji Temple, Chinese temple in Xixi Village, Taiwan.
Hsihsi Beiji Temple is a Chinese temple in Xixi Village featuring traditional architecture with detailed carved ornaments and separate halls for worship. The buildings house statues of multiple deities, each with their own dedicated spaces within the complex.
The temple traces its origins to the Qing dynasty period when Magong City was organized into districts, with this building serving the Dongjia district. It remains a surviving structure from that administrative system.

The temple welcomes visitors to explore its prayer halls and observe ceremonies during regular opening hours. Arriving during quieter times of day allows for a better look at the carved details and statue placements.
The temple houses an unusually diverse collection of deity statues, including Cundi Bodhisattva, Dark Lady, and the God of Earth. This mixing of different religious figures shows how local beliefs blend multiple spiritual traditions.
