Taishan Up Temple

A simple and easy route, you can go straight up from Yinghua community, or straight up from the temple next to it, and you can go up to the South Asia Park. It is worth walking.

After going to the Guizi Children’s Park on October 25, 2020, I came up here. There are many worshippers here. Dingtai Mountain Rock was built in 1754. It was donated by Li Xuyan and Li Xuyuan. After many restorations, it became the present one. The main worship is The other masters of Xianying are Guanyin, Mazu, etc. In addition, there is an ecological drainage source of Yinghua nearby. You can take a walk to see green plants.

The building is well preserved, but the space is actually smaller than it looks from the outside.

In the third year of Xianfeng (1853), there was a big fight in Zhangquan in the Taipei Basin, and Fushanyan was burned by Zhangzhou people. After the villagers raised funds for reconstruction, it was renamed "Taishan Rock". In the first year of Guangxu (1875), due to the increasing number of believers, another Taishan Rock was built in Gouzaichang of Mount Tai to worship the ancestors of Xianying. Therefore, the names of "Ding Taishan Rock" and "Xiataishan Rock" were used for this purpose. for difference. Dingtai Mountain Rock, also known as "Ding Temple", is also called "Qizizijiao Temple" because it is located at the foot of the "Qizaitou" platform. It has a history of more than 250 years and has been listed as a national third-level historic site. . The layout of Dingtai Mountain Rock is magnificent, with nine bays on the front, two entrances and two corridors, and two dragons on the left and right. It's a pity that the timing of our visit today was wrong. It was during the Spring Festival, and the temple was erected with a tent and placed an offering table to facilitate worshippers. Therefore, it was impossible to take a panoramic view of the temple. The wooden carvings, ancient monuments and ancient plaques in the temple are quite impressive. The woodwork and woodcarving in the temple were completed by the famous craftsman Chen Yingbin led by his apprentice Huang Guili during the overhaul of Taishanyan from the 7th to 10th year of the Showa Period (1932-1935). Chen Yingbin is a representative of the famous Zhang School craftsmen, and the Baoan Palace in Dalongdong, a national second-class historic site, is his important representative work. In 1853, Taishan Rock was destroyed in the hands of Zhangzhou people, and Zhangquan did not communicate with each other. Eighty years later, the temple repair project of Taishan Rock was handed over to Zhangzhou craftsmen. It can also be indirectly inferred that the two hundred years of ethnic conflict in Zhangquan have reached this time. has disappeared into the invisible.

With a grateful heart, there is worship and protection. Taishan Yan was built in 1754, and the original name of Taishan came from here.

Dingtai Mountain Rock is dedicated to the ancestor Xianying, and there is a large row of Yinghua next to it. The Qitou trail on the right side of the temple can be connected to the Yixuekeng trail
