Where the Gods Gather

Hong Kong's Temples House Many Religions and Deities
Martyna Szmytkowska
Like most temples in Hong Kong, the building is used for prayer to many gods, not just Tin Hau. Some visitors can also be confused by the fact that temples are not necessarily dedicated to one religion, with deities from Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism often sharing temples. Added to this confusion is Ancestor Worship, which at certain times of the year trumps all three. Tin Hau is primarily Taoist, but as you can see from the pictures, superstars from all of the religions make an appearance.
