Hong Kong Yellow Emperor Temple
  The Yellow Emperor Temple is located in On Lok Tsuen, Fanling, New Territories, Hong Kong (No. 18, Lung Yeuk Tau Section, Sha Tau Kok Road), facing Luen Wo Hui. Originally named “Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall,” it was built in 1925 and served as a public ancestral hall for villagers of various surnames in Fanling, North District, New Territories, for worship and community meetings, as well as functioning as Xin Nong School (an elementary school). In 2000, clan members of the Tang family from Lung Yeuk Tau, New Territories, pooled funds to demolish and rebuild the temple. The foundation was laid in mid-2001, and reconstruction was completed by mid-2005. It was then officially renamed the “Yellow Emperor Temple” and is the first large-scale memorial structure dedicated to the Yellow Emperor (Xuanyuan Huangdi) in southern China.

  The temple covers an area of ten thousand square feet and features a traditional Chinese architectural style. Inside the grand main hall, it houses altars representing diverse religious and cultural traditions: the “Ancestral Altar,” the “Buddhist Altar,” the “Taoist Altar,” the “Confucian Altar,” the “Agricultural Altar,” the “Silkworm Altar,” the “Medical Altar,” the “Three Star Altars,” the “Three Teachings Altars,” and the “Three Pure Ones Altars.” There are also altars such as the “Heavenly God Altar” and the “Moon Goddess Altar.”
