On the way to visit the Jewish Refugee Memorial Hall, I stumbled upon this temple at the intersection. After reading the introduction, I learned that her name was Xiahai Temple, which was founded in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, when there were fishing villages from Dongdaming Road to Shangqiu Road. The small temple was born to fishermen and residents to pray for peace and worship the god of the Bohai Sea. Unfortunately, it was not open in the afternoon. If anyone goes to Raffles City on the North Bund for a walk, you can go and see this grounded temple.
"Do you know that there is still a sea in Shanghai?" At 73 Kunming Road, Tilanqiao District, Hongkou District, Shanghai, there is a small temple called "Xiahai Temple". According to historical records, Xiahai Temple was founded during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, from the current Dongdaming Road to Shangqiu Road, there are fishing villages. The fishermen went to sea to fish and needed to ask God's blessing, and this small temple came into existence. It is said that later, the place name of this area is also related to this, such as the Tilan Bridge is the fishermen's basket with incense candles, crossing the bridge to go to Xiahai Temple to burn incense.
