This Taoist temple, one of the oldest in the island, is dedicated to two deities: Man, God of literature, and Mo, God of war better known as Guanyu. The latter is also the protector of restaurants, loan shops, the police… and Triades. Both gods were venerated by students and officials before their exams during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Let yourself be impregnated by the thick smoke flowing from the incense waves, some of which are so large that they burn for four weeks. We love the atmosphere that comes out of the place. Note, however, that there are several Man Mo temples in Hong Kong and that this one is the most famous (and most popular) of them.

Petit temple sympathique, pas le plus beau mais il mérite quand même le détour.

Proche du métro Sheung Wan, ce temple mérite le détour. Il est petit, mais il est original. En effet, il comporte de grandes spirales d'encens suspendues au plafond.

Un peu décevant comparé à d'autres temples asiatiques que l'on peut voir en Corée, Chine, Vietnam etc.
C'est très petit, on a vite fait le tour. Pour moi, c'est plutôt un repaire pour habitués qui viennent prier et déposer des offrandes.
