慈誠宮 “Temple of Compassion and Sincerity” (Cíchéng Gōng) / 台灣台北士林市 Shilin District, Taipei, Taiwan / SML.20140210.6D.30698

This temple is called 慈誠宮 “Temple of Compassion and Sincerity” (Cíchéng Gōng), and is where I see the festive lanterns. The temple was built in 清嘉慶元年 (1796). It is considered a “Level-3 Historic Site” (三級古蹟) in Taiwan, and is a representative model of Chinese historic temple architecture.

 

It is located at Great South Road, Shilin District, Taipei, Taiwan (台灣台北市士林區大南路).
