Searching for the Hashtag of "Sanfeng Palace" on Instergram will find many good pictures. This trip to Kaohsiung has been listed on my must-visit list. I have to make two trips for this sea of lanterns. Finally, I waited until the sea of hundreds of lanterns lit up, which was extremely dazzling.
Why it's worth a visit to Sanfeng Palace
Formerly known as Sanfeng Pavilion, the main deity worshipped is Prince Nezha, the Marshal of Zhongtan. Taiziye Temple was the patron saint of Kaohsiung's three houses in the past, also known as the Temple of Three Kings.It was built during the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, and after several renovations, it has become a majestic temple today. I did a little research on the temples in Taiwan that were also set up during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, including Wanhua Longshan Temple, Tainan Shuixian Temple, Penghu Shigong Temple, etc.
There are also some local temples with a history of more than XNUMX years. The special feature of Sanfeng Palace lies in the construction of the Chinese palace structure. The sea is the "light of wealth and safety", in order to seek wealth, career, financial resources, and the safety of the family.
▲ There are parking spaces in front of and outside Sanfeng Palace.
▲ Three-entry format.
▲ There will be different perspectives on the second and third floors.
Sanfeng Palace Hundred Lights Sea
It rained for two days on my first visit. Wendy helped me to inquire about the temple, and learned that the lights were temporarily turned off due to the source of the rain, and they had to wait for the air to dry before turning them on again. I was able to grasp the last night of my departure from Kaohsiung. Fortunately, the weather changed that day. Qing, sprinted over quickly, and saw that the whole surface of the sea of lights was hanging on the top, and the orange-red light and shadow reflected the Sanfeng Palace in a solemn and solemn yet festive atmosphere for the New Year.
▲ I couldn't help but get excited, I finally waited for this picture!
▲ There were also several photographers who came to shoot at the scene.
Pray for the third prince to bless the child
The little hamburger is in the naughty stage, and sometimes I can't sleep well at night. I prayed to the third prince to bless the little hamburger's health and safety, and took a peace amulet and candy. I hope that the child will be safe and healthy in 2022, and bravely spend this year without incident. Joy, the other main hall is also dedicated to the goddess of birth, and those who want to ask for children can also prepare flowers and fruits to go to the sacrifice and pray, wishing that everything will come true.
