照天宮

Near my grandmother's house

History: The main worship of this palace "Chitose Pond House" has a long history. Ever since Benli formed a tribe, there has been a golden statue of Chi Mansion, who protects the earth and built temples for worship. In the 30th year of the Republic of China’s major earthquake, temples collapsed, connected to the Japanese imperial movement, and destroyed the temples. Therefore, they could not be rebuilt at any time. The statues were moved to private houses. Every year, the chief furnace owner was selected to take turns in charge of the festival affairs. At the time of Taiwan's recovery, Cai Gu, a believer in Benli, initiated a fundraiser to rebuild the old site. In the 35th year of the Republic of China, Bingshu was completed. This is the current state of the palace. The palace name is "Zhaotiangong". After more than 20 years, the village has not been built, and there are plans to build a community and rebuild the temple at the same time.

According to the Tiangong, the chief worshipper is the Chitose Mansion. The space of the temple is on the second floor, and the first floor is the inner office. The surrounding environment is quiet and pleasant, very suitable for walking. Founded in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, it was worshipped as the main deity of Chifu Chisui (the prince), who was admired by generations of people in this realm. In the 27th year of Guangxu in the pre-Qing Dynasty, Qiu Xianzhang, the head of the village, based on the glorious spirit and local development plan, initiated the building of temples and persuaded the villagers to donate money. At that time, there were about forty residents in the village. , And chose a lucky day for Xinggong to name it "Zhaotiangong." When the temple was founded, the funds were short-lived, the design, materials, and all were sloppy, and it was repeatedly attacked by wind and rain. It fell into disrepair for a long time, with damaged roofs and walls. At that time, Honjo Baozheng Xu Chunan saw this scene and proposed to rebuild it. In Showa 7, the original temple was demolished and the second rebuild was completed. In the winter of Showa 16 in the Great Earthquake in Taiwan, the roof collapsed and was refurbished. In the Second World War, the Japanese temple was burnt down and the temple was demolished and used as a Japanese language workshop. After the Republic of China Broadcasting moved to Taiwan, Cai Gaonai, a good faith in the village, initiated the construction of three shrines, and with the assistance of Xu Yingdu and Jian Zhang, the construction of Zhaotian Palace was completed. In the spring of 1962, the old temple was demolished (the site and direction are still in place) and rebuilt into a second-floor type with concrete steel bars. The upper part is Zhaotian Temple, which enshrines Chitose Mansion, and the lower part is the Xinnanli Activity Center.
