Chuan Ji Temple, with a history of a hundred years, enshrines Lord Guan, the guardian deity of the Jinguashi area. There are three must-see treasures in the temple. The first is the largest pure copper statue of Lord Guan in Taiwan, which faces the mountains and overlooks the sea. It is 35 Taiwanese feet tall and weighs 25 tons. The Spring and Autumn Annals book held in its left hand alone is five Taiwanese feet high. The second is a pair of national treasure-level stone pillars carved with intricate three-dimensional reliefs of flowers, birds, and human figures, which the temple has carefully protected with acrylic casings. The third is the Golden-Faced Lord Guan, a statue brought from mainland China during the early Republic of China era, and is a rare sight in Taiwan.
