Baoan Temple 保安宮 UNESCO Asian Pacific Heritage Site - Taipei Taiwan 2025

Описание: Baoan Temple 保安宮

Baoan Temple is dedicated to Baosheng Emperor (保生大帝). There’s a story about him curing a dragon’s injured eye and moving the stick away from a tiger’s throat, making Baosheng Emperor the god of medicine.

The early Chinese immigrants brought him from Fujian in the 16th century. When they first moved to Taipei, they suffered from the plague here. The whole purpose of building the temple and worshipping Baoan Emperor was to stop the plague.

Baoan Temple started as a small wooden shrine in 1742 and later expanded to the size it is now. In 1995, the temple was under renovation. The construction managed to repair its exterior and preserve its artworks including dragon columns and the fragmented ceramic at the same time. As a result, Baoan Temple was given the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Award of Culture Heritage Conservation.

Getting there is easy. Take the MRT Red Line to Yuanshan Station then take exit #2. From there it’s a short 5-10 minute walk to the west.
