代天府靈帝殿 - Donggang Township

Solemn

The Lord of the Tianfu Lingdi Hall of the Donggang Dynasty worshipped Hefu for thousands of years. At about the end of the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, he came along with the coastal immigrants of Fujian Province. The earliest written record is in the 30th year of Guangxu, 1904 AD, which is related to the Tianxun hunting of the Donglong Palace, and it has a special weight in the palaces and temples of Donggang area! On the way to participate in Xinchouke's welcoming the king, I saw the Fengyu Bridge listed with the sign of "Gong Ying" of the Lingdi Palace, so I came here to pay homage. The Lingdi Hall was built several times, and its scale is now determined by the reconstruction after Typhoon Siloma in 1977. It is based on the Fujian architectural style. The inner eaves are exposed to beams according to ancient rituals, and ceilings and algae wells are not used. Limited by the land type, the building is relatively small compared to the nearby temples, but the details are different; first, the roof, the front hall is a single-edged mountain, and the main hall is only a suspended mountain top, which reduces the sense of oppression on the surrounding houses . Next is the mountain flower, not the tiger face, it is all ingenious: the dragon side of the main hall is the green group dragon, and the tiger side is the phoenix with spreading wings. The most amazing thing is the Xieshan flower in the front hall, with sea waves as the bottom, each inlaid with sailfish and tuna...It is worthy of Donggang!!!
