Hong Kong, there is a Hollywood; Hollywood, there is a Wenwu Temple; those who know Hollywood should know the Wenwu Temple. The quiet location of Wenwu Temple in downtown Shanghuan City is in sharp contrast with the busy commercial area around it. The history of the establishment of the Wenwu Temple can be traced back to the early days of Hong Kong's opening. It is one of the oldest temples in Hong Kong and is also well-known at home and abroad. Although it has been built many times, it remains the same as before. The temple's copper bells, big tripod, Yungyu, Pewter incense burner and elaborate statue wooden pedestals are all ancient and ancient. More than a century of wind and rain erosion, vicissitudes of life here seems to have left no trace. Or the eaves, the arch walls, the ancient halls, the green lanterns, the pilgrims, or the Van Le. Walking into the temple, looking up is one after another long-burning large-scale tower incense, the ceiling is covered, the tower incense smoking white smoke, spectacular. The main hall is dedicated to Emperor Wenchang and Emperor Guan. Wenchang represents fame and official fortune, worship helps official fortune, Guandi represents wealth and faith, worship helps to improve interpersonal relationships, bless you to meet nobles when you go out, status rises, and the merger of the two emperors is the management of human studies and undertakings. Therefore, the temple has been incensed for a long time, attracting many good faith and tourists to worship here. Wenwu Temple ranks first among the top ten most popular temples in Hong Kong. For more than a hundred years, pilgrims from afar and good men and women from admiration come here to worship and make wishes. The curling smoke is endless, blowing constantly, and dazzling in the clouds and dazzling clouds. As for those wishes and prayers, whether they can become reality or not is not important. What matters is that they were here full of piety and happiness. Destiny is like the palm print in your hand. No matter how tortuous it is, it will eventually be in your hands. You are right. There are no tickets for Wenwu Temple, which is free of charge. Unlike others, Wenwu Temple opens its doors to convenience, not only without admission tickets, but also with incense free of charge. In front of the main entrance there is a "Annmin Notice" which says that the temple does not turn the edge on, nor does it ask for incense money and clouds. This realm is quite different from those so-called monasteries that charge fees everywhere and monks who ask for money in the streets. Located at 124-126 Hollywood Road, Shanghuan, at the junction of Hollywood Road and Stairway Street; the fastest route - "from Exit A2 of MTR "Shanghuan" Station, turn right along Xieli Street to Queen's Avenue, and walk along the Stairway beside Legu Road for about 5 minutes to Hollywood Street. The temple, which occupies only hundreds of square meters and is located in downtown Hong Kong Island, is of great significance. It is not only a holy place for many Hong Kong tourists to punch cards, but also a place for many Hong Kong movies and TVB shooting. Therefore, the Wenwu Temple in Shanghuan is worth visiting. The main hall of Wenwu Temple can be photographed. Many tourists pose in front of the thousand-flower Candlestick in the hall. The staff are very enthusiastic, but they ask to worship the emperor Chang and Guan before taking photos to show their respect for the two emperors.

    The oldest cultural and martial temple in Sheung Wan, the statutory monument, has been close to 175 years of history and is now rated as a first-class historical building by the Hong Kong Antiquities Commission. It is said that the cultural and martial temple is the most spiritual in its career.

    ILocated near the popular and trendy Hollywood Road, this temple stands out amidst the concrete jungle that is Central, Hong Kong. It’s free entrance and easy to go by those sequence of sleeper escalators. Its facades are simple but inside is such a beautiful and cozy place to connect to spirituality just into the busy city. The interior design is incredibly rich of details with great job in wood and very colourful. The smell, the foggy atmosphere and the sound make us feel serenity and calm.

    The Temple of Man and Wu (Man Mo Temple) is located on Hollywood Road, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong, China. It was completed between the first year of Qingdao Guangwen 27 (1847) and the first year of Tongzhi (1862). It is one of the earliest Chinese temples built in Hong Kong under British colonial rule. The temple is a group of temples. It consists of three buildings: the temple, the palace and the public office. The temple is mainly dedicated to the Wenchang and the emperor, and the palace is used as a place for the worship of the gods. The public office is a place for Chinese discussion and troubleshooting in the area. The three buildings are separated by two alleys. The Temple of Man and Wu reflects the social organization and religious practices of the Chinese in Hong Kong in the past, and has important historical and social significance.
