Phone:886-8-2324174 Address:890 Kinmen County890Jinsha TownshipNo.99, Houputou
Cihde TempleHuang Yi-Sou, the "Man of Perfect Virtue" came from Wunshueitou (now Houshueitou) and passed the highest imperial examination in 1514. There are many legends about him and Hsu Hsieh in Kinmen's folklore. The two were described as "Hsu for writing, Huang for virtue" and were the most famous people on Kinmen during the Ming Dynasty.In 1537 a massive famine broke out in Quanzhou. Inspector Li Yuan-yang sent Huang Wei, Hsu Fu and Yu Ta-Yu as his representatives to provide aid to the starving populace. After working tirelessly for days and nights on end, Huang became ill due to exhaustion and passed away on Mach 17 of the following year.For those affected by the famine, his loss was keenly felt and he was venerated in local shrines after his death. In 1876, his descendants proposed the construction of the Cihde Temple dedicated to his memory so the "Man of Perfect Virtue" could serve as an example to future generations.The architecture and building materials of the Cihde Temple is quite similar to other ordinary temples on the island. The uniqueness of its craftsmanship is in the koji pottery, porcelain inlays and stone carvings.Koji Pottery: A total of six koji pottery works are present on the Dragon and Tiger Wall, Mirror Wall and Wall Panels. These are stunning in how lifelike they area.Porcelain Inlay: The dragon motifs in the middle of the temple roof and on top of the roof ridge were all made from porcelain inlays.Stone Carving: This included all the granite stone bases, doorways as well as the calligraphy on the granite counter supports, wall panels and stone columns. Themes included pavilions, people, trees, flowers, birds or opera stories. The level of detail and craftsmanship is superb.These three features of the temple are the most extensive and best-preserved collections of their kind on the island.
