Wong Tai Sin Temple 黃大仙祠

Lamp holding statues in Wong Tai Sin Temple for the prayers to light the Incense Sticks.

 

On the Chinese New Year's Eve, thousands of worshippers wait outside the temple before midnight and rush in to the main altar to offer Wong Tai Sin their glowing incense sticks when the year comes. As the tradition goes, the earlier they offer the incense, the better luck they will have that year.
