Enter Zhenhai Palace and experience its extraordinary cultural charm.

🌈Highlights: 1. Rich religious culture: A collection of religious culture and an important base for religious activities. The palace is dedicated to many gods. The front hall is dedicated to the Jade Emperor, the main hall is dedicated to the King of Heaven, and the two sides are dedicated to the Black and White Impermanence. The left wing is dedicated to the Tree King and the Land God, and the right wing is dedicated to the Lady and the Green King. The left side of the house is decorated with twelve statues of the King of Heaven. The back hall is covered with two floors, with the middle dedicated to the King of Hell, the left dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva and Wenchang, and the right dedicated to the City God and the King. Its religious beliefs have far-reaching influence, not only in southern Fujian, but also in the Philippines, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and other areas where overseas Chinese live in Southeast Asia. 2. Unique architectural style: The temple is a five-bay, three-entry, double-guarded house with a rigorous architectural layout and high artistic value. The beams and columns of the palace are filled with couplets and plaques, many of which are from Taiwan or overseas, showing the religious and cultural exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and between China and foreign countries. 3. Beautiful surroundings: The temple overlooks Shenhu Bay, with surging waves, and is backed by Baogai Mountain, majestic and towering. Lion Peak is steep and rugged, guarding the east. Longhu Lake is surrounded by green waves, guarding the west. The surrounding trees are shady, the red cedar trees are as bright as the morning sun, and the casuarina trees are as green as jasper. The ancient and modern trees are red and green, forming a spectacular sight. 4. Rich cultural heritage: Close to the ancient underwater forest site of Shenhu Bay, with a long history. It was also the base of General Shi Lang's attack on Taiwan and Penghu in the early Qing Dynasty, witnessing the changes of history. In addition, the custom of "sending the king's boat" is closely related to Zhenhai Palace and was announced as a provincial intangible cultural heritage at the beginning of this year. 🕐️Opening hours: All day 🏝️Recommended routes: 1. If you are departing from Quanzhou, you can visit other attractions in Quanzhou, such as Luoyang Bridge and Cai Xiang Temple, before heading to Zhenhai Palace. You can refer to the religious prayer route: Quanzhou City - Zhenhai Palace - Feilu Temple - Xiangong Mountain - Guifengyan - Shengzuma Temple - Return to the city. 2. If you have enough time, you can visit the surrounding attractions, such as the Shenhu Bay Underwater Ancient Forest Site Nature Reserve, to experience the integration of nature and culture.
