After visiting the national historic site, the Tainan Sacrificial Mazu Temple, don't miss the adjacent Taiwan Sacrificial Martial Temple. It is the only martial temple in Taiwan that has been elevated to the status of a court sacrificial temple. The main deity worshipped here is the Martial God of Wealth, Guan Sheng Dijun. Inside the hall stands a towering Green Dragon Crescent Blade, gleaming with a silver sheen and exuding an extraordinary aura. The most eye-catching feature of the Martial Temple's exterior is the 66-meter-long, continuous vermilion gable wall that connects each building, forming a magnificent long wall. It can be said to be the most beautiful scenery in Tainan. The architectural beauty of the Sacrificial Martial Temple is also a major highlight: the sparrow substitutes of the Sanchuan Hall, the lion and elephant fighting seats, the plaque of the Great Man, the two dragons fighting for the pearl, and the two statues of Guan Di in the main hall. Each has its own story and special use, and without a guided tour, it is difficult to understand the mysteries within.
