Because Dajia Ma walked around the border, came to worship one day in advance. The age when objects can be seen everywhere in palaces and temples is very historical God table, wooden door, murals are old pieces The items have the nicks of the weather, but the temple staff kept it clean and tidy with great care. Standing in the temple, the breath before exhaling and inhaling is very comfortable, there is no sense of architectural oppression, and the ventilation is cool and pleasant everywhere~ The religious culture is very strong, and everyone is welcome to visit the temple if you have time.

No folk customs! There are a lot of meticulous parts in architectural details

One of the faith centers of Xi30 villagers. Located in the urban area. About 10 small self-passenger cars can be parked in the palace square. The exterior building is different from ordinary Matsu temples.

Xizhou Houtian Temple was founded in 52 years of the Republic of China. It is the local belief center and one of the temples that Dajia Ma must stop by every year to enter the incense. The reason for the construction of the temple also has a heart-warming story. 【Historical Evolution】 In the early Qing Dynasty, Han people came to Taiwan by crossing the sea to reclaim wasteland on the south bank of Dongluo River (the old Zhuoshui River), and farming for a living. Today, Xizhou Jiumei Village), and built the Tianhou Temple on Dongluo Old She Street. However, during the Jiaqing period, the Zhuoshui River flooded, the river changed its direction, and the flood destroyed the Dongluo Old She Street, and the Mazu Temple survived. After losing the faith center, although no temple was built, the local believers still take Mazu as their spiritual sustenance. From the 41st year of the Republic of China (1952) to the opening of the Xiluo Bridge, Xizhou is located on the north side of the Zhuoshui River, which is the only place to travel between the north and the south. Every year, many incense groups pass by here. The ritual of the landlord, however, there are times when pilgrims are sleeping on the streets, and there are no temples to provide for pilgrims to settle in. The believers proposed the idea of ​​building a temple. Fundraising began in 1952. Two years later, the main hall was completed in 1954 and went to Lugangtian. The harem invites Fu Wuma Town Hall, and welcomes Mazu from Dajia Zhenlan Palace and Fengyuan Tzu Chi Palace back to the temple to worship. [Stone incense burner found after 20 years of loss] In the early days of building the temple, the temple hired craftsmen to build five incense burners using the rare Guanyin stone in Taiwan. However, these five incense burners disappeared in 1981, and the temple had to replace them with copper incense burners. There are different opinions about the disappearance. It was not known until 2020. When the temple was sorting out the open space behind the temple, they found a stone incense burner that had been missing for 30 years in the corner hut. The stone incense burner was completely sealed with cement. The disappearance is because some people are jealous of the prosperity of the incense in Houtian Palace, and the incense burner is sealed with cement, which means to extinguish the incense. After the efforts of the temple to find people and repair it, it was completed the following year, and the furnace was re-installed on the day when Mazu flew up.
