The Man Mo Temple is a stunning homage to the God of Literature (Man) and the God of War (Mo). Constructed between 1847 and 1862, it remains the largest of its kind in Hong Kong. Designated a Grade 1 historic building in 1994 and declared a monument in 2010, the temple is steeped in history. Its giant hanging incense coils provide a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the nearby financial district. The complex also features Lit Shing Kung, a space dedicated to the worship of all heavenly gods, and Kung Sor, an assembly hall to the west of the temple where community matters and disputes were once deliberated and resolved.
