Tin Hau Temple, Joss House Bay, Sai Kung
The Tin Hau Temple located at the northern shore of Joss House Bay, commonly known as Tai Miu (literally, “great temple”), is one of the oldest and largest Tin Hau temples in Hong Kong. The inscriptions on the rock at the back of the temple suggests that the temple is linked to the Southern Song dynasty.
