Hung Shing Temple

The Hung Shing Temple in Wan Chai was built between 1847 and 1852. It was originally a small altar on a stone facing the sea. However, after several reclamations, the temple is now located in the heart of Wan Chai. Hung Shing is the god in charge of the ocean and weather, and is closely related to fishermen, farmers, and sea traders. In 2015, the Hung Shing Temple was closed for renovation for the first time in a century, and the renovated temple continues to preserve its characteristics and style.

Looking back at history, Wan Chai Hung Shing Temple is a Qing Dynasty building that was already here before the Opium War and has a history of more than 150 years. The temple is not big, but compared with the surrounding urban development, it is really quaint.

Wan Chai Post Office was first seen halfway down the road from Central to the left and right. Hong Kong Island is a very magical place, it has the world's largest density of office buildings and a variety of tall modern buildings, but at the same time, it also retains a lot of small, old buildings with a strong sense of history, and these old buildings are in place, almost unimportant to pass by so missed. Fortunately, roadside signs also give a slight description of where and where there are monuments, but when you really stand in front of these monuments, it's difficult to find detailed instructions (sometimes at the door, sometimes only in the travel brochure). For example, the Hongsheng Ancient Temple, a small one, looks inside from the door. It is so densely packed with gods and Buddhas that I dare not enter it, because I do not know whether it is for tourists or private collective ownership.
