Originally built during the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty, the Mazu Temple was originally located in Niuchao Port and was one of the earliest centers of faith in the port city. It has moved from the gentle sea breeze of the pier to the street corner it is today, accompanying the people of Keelung through the golden age of the fishing harbor, and also blessing countless citizens with safe voyages (out of the city) and peaceful returns (to the city). - Attraction Features - Walking into Qing'an Temple, the first thing that catches your eye is the Mazu stone carving on the right side of the temple square. Her kind and dignified expression seems to be quietly guarding the passing pilgrims. This is the only Mazu temple in Taiwan that simultaneously enshrines the Mazu from Meizhou, Quanzhou, and Zhangzhou, a "three Mazu co-enshrinement" Mazu temple, integrating beliefs from different sources into the same temple, just like Keelung's spirit of embracing diverse port culture from ancient times to the present. In addition to the main deity, Empress of Heaven, the temple also enshrines the Jade Emperor, the God of Wealth, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and many other deities. The temple is bustling with incense and pilgrims. The temple thoughtfully set up a "Bridge of Peace" on the second floor, connecting the corridors on both sides of the second floor of the main hall, making it convenient for pilgrims to worship and allowing them to overlook the temple square from the second floor, experiencing the beauty of the palace from different angles. In addition, there is a "Taoist Service Center" in the temple for those in need.
