Wong Tai Sin Temple (Sik Sik Yuen Temple), Hong Kong
An explosion of colourful pillars, roofs, lattice work, flowers and incense, this busy temple is a destination for all walks of Hong Kong society, from pensioners and business people to parents and young professionals.
Some come simply to pray, others to divine the future with chìm – bamboo ‘fortune sticks’ that are shaken out of a box on to the ground and then read by a fortune-teller (they’re available free from the left of the main temple).
HOW TO GO TO SIK SIK YUEN | TEMPLE |WONG TAI SIN|HK/Home of 3 religions/taoism-Buddhism-confusianism
The Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple’s claim to ‘make every wish come true upon request’ might have something to do with its popularity. Home to three religions ( #Taoism, #Buddhism and #Confucianism), its natural setting and beautifully ornamented buildings make it as much a scenic attraction as an important religious centre.
The temple commemorates the famous monk of yore, Wong Tai Sin (also known as Huang Chu-ping), who was born in the Fourth century and became a deity at Heng Shan (Red Pine Hill). In 1915, Taoist priest Liang Ren-an carried a sacred portrait of Wong Tai Sin from Guangdong in southern China to Hong Kong. Now housing this precious portrait, the Wong Tai Sin Temple is where worshippers pray for good fortune through offerings, divine guidance and fortune telling.
Feng shui enthusiasts may notice structures representing the five geomantic elements: the Bronze Pavilion (metal); the Archives Hall (wood); the Yuk Yik Fountain (water); the Yue Heung Shrine (fire), where the Buddha of the Lighting Lamp is worshipped; and the Earth Wall (earth). Other areas of the complex include the Three Saints Hall, the Confucian Hall and the extravagantly colourful Good Wish Garden that is lavishly decorated with chinoiserie.

Exploring Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong
I arrived at Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple at 4:40 p.m., 20 minutes prior to closing, and looked around for 25 minutes. The Taoist complex was built in 1973 and is dedicated to a deified healer named Wong Tai Sin who was said to have transformed boulders into sheep. When he was 15, he learned how to make an herbal potion that could cure all illnesses. He is thus worshipped by both the ill and those trying to avoid becoming sick. An arcade of fortune tellers are on hand to tell you what it means when you select a certain numbered stick from a bamboo container.

Hongkong, Wong Tai Sin Temple - China Travel Channel
The Wong Tai Sin Temple (Chinese: 黄大仙 祠) is a picturesque Taoist temple amidst huge apartment buildings in Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is dedicated to Taoist monk Won Tai Sin. Also described as immortal Wong, the monk was able to look into the future and had healing powers. The foundation stone for the temple was laid in the early 20th Century by Leung Renyan, a small shopkeeper for medical needs.
Today it is one of the most visited temples in Hong Kong. We were impressed how few the people feel bothered by the attending crowds, in their prayers and meditation.
The temple complex includes the beautiful Good Wish Garden.
The temple is easily accessible by the subway. It is just 200 meters from the Wong Tai Sin MTR Station and opens daily from 7:00 - 17:00 clock.

Der Wong Tai Sin Tempel (chines. 黃大仙祠), ein malerischer daoistischer Tempel liegt inmitten riesiger Wohnblocks in Kowloon, Hongkong.
Er ist dem daostischen Mönch Won Tai Sin geweiht. Auch als unsterblicher Wong bezeichnet, konnte der Mönch in die Zukunft schauen und verfügte über heilende Kräfte.
Der Grundstein für den Tempel wurden im frühen 20. Jahrhundert von Leung Renyan, einem kleinen Ladenbesitzer für medizinischen Bedarf, gegründet. Heute zählt er zu den meistbesuchten Tempel in Hongkong. Beeindruckt hat uns, wie wenig sich die Gläubigen von den anwesenden Menschenmengen in ihrer Andacht und Meditation stören lassen.
Zur Tempelanlage gehört auch der wunderschön angelegte Garten der guten Wünsche.
Der Wong Tai Sin Tempel ist auch bequem mit der U-Bahn zu erreichen. Er liegt nur 200 Meter von der Wong Tai Sin MTR Station entfernt und ist täglich von 7:00 - 17:00 Uhr geöffnet.

10,000 Miles | Hong Kong (PT2) - Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple
There's a few snapshots of our day in this video but i had so much footage from the beautiful temple i decided to pretty much do a whole video on that alone. Even with all the people, it was absolute tranquillity in the heart of one of the most populated parts of the world and i'm so glad i got to experience it.
