20200504 Tainan Hou Tianhou Temple Yuerma is under construction.

There are ten furnaces for worshipping the Virgin Mary in heaven. Very quiet place.

No tourists, very quiet environment. The sculptures in the temple are also worth visiting. There is a kind of grass at the door, the first time I saw it.

Very beautiful, there are a lot of three-dimensional cross-toe burning, stone carving, stone pillars, and the above story is quite easy to understand. The pattern of the terrazzo floor looks like a carpet.

Antique temples, as well as worship the grass Liang, filled with buckets, to drink water for horses.

The Tianhou Palace on the mountain was founded in the 4th year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1854). It worships the Second Mother of Jade and enshrines gods such as God Xuantian, Our Lady of Heaven, Marshal of Zhongtan, God of Fortune, Zhusheng Empress, etc. It is the religious belief of the people of the mountain district center. The Golden Statue of the Jade Virgin Mary was originally the patron saint of the navy of Zheng Chenggong, the surname of the country. In the 18th year of Qing Shunzhi (1661), he came to Taiwan with the army. After the surname of the country ruled Taiwan, the Virgin Mary and the garrison entered the "Beiweizi" (later renamed Guoshenghu) in Ouchi Township, and then the Virgin Mary chose a good place to worship. It was the time when the Second Lady of the Jade looked forward to the three high mountains in the south, majestically standing, with beautiful mountains and rivers, it was an auspicious place to live in, so the garrison was instructed to move to the top of the mountain, and then the believer will welcome the second Lady of the Jade to the left of the present temple site. In the front, a thatched cottage was built to enshrine it, which was the foundation for the Tianhou Palace on the mountain. The current appearance of the temple was rebuilt in 1967.

?Temple environment: quiet and solemn, the local faith center, you can feel the sense of peace in the town protected by the Jade Second Mother. ?Adjacent to the mountain middle school, after walking around the town, you can go around the school to watch the sheep. If the school just releases the sheep to eat the grass, you can interact with the sheep up close, which is a very special experience.
