This mid-19th century temple, dedicated to the Gods of Literature (Man) and Military (Mo), is located at the corner of Hollywood Road and Ladder Street. The temple complex is divided into three units: the temple is in the left-hand unit. Two house-shaped antique chairs, stored inside the temple, were used to carry the two gods during festival processions.Hanging from the ceiling are incense coils, each with small red tag declaring the name of the worshipper who donated the incense coil. Anyone wanting a glimpse into the future can try shaking chim (fortune) sticks, a strong local tradition.
