Huang Zhuangyuan Temple, Taoist temple in Taipei, Taiwan.

Huang Zhuangyuan Temple in Sanzhangli, Xinyi District, is a small shrine built beside an old grave and dedicated to a Huang surname scholar honored as a zhuangyuan. It has a single main hall with a statue of the white-robed figure, and its modest scale reflects its origin as a grave-side chapel.

The temple grew from a grave on the site: legend says a man who cut the banyan roots hanging over an old tomb was reproached in a dream by a white-robed figure calling himself Huang Zhuangyuan, and built a small shrine beside the grave to make amends. On 8 November 1993 Taipei's civil affairs bureau named it among old city temples lacking legal registration.

The temple is dedicated to a Huang surnamed scholar who, according to legend, fell ill and died in Songshan while travelling in Taiwan and was buried on this site; locals honoured him as Zhuangyuan. Students from Sanzhangli families come to pray for success in exams. In the 1980s, elders recalled vendors crowding beside the temple and stacks of votive paper burned in thanks, at times so contested that people fought over the tinfoil.

The temple stands in Sanzhangli, Xinyi District, Taipei, not on Qingnian Road. It is a small neighbourhood shrine rather than a large complex, so allow only a short visit. In 2003 reports noted that worshippers had dwindled, and the management committee turns away people seeking lottery numbers.

The temple's name comes from a title locals gave the buried man, not from an imperial examination result. In the 1980s, when incense was heaviest, vendors crowded beside the shrine and worshippers fought over the tinfoil scraped from burnt paper money to sell.
