The Man Mo Temple is one of the earliest temples established in Hong Kong Island. Standing on Hollywood Road in Sheung Wan, Man Mo Temple bears witness to the lives of those Hong Kong Chinese that lived in the Sheung Wan area in the early colonial times till the present. As a place where most Chinese residents of Sheung Wan frequent, the Man Mo Temple was more than a place of worship. It once was the venue for meting out justice and resolving civilian disputes. The Man Mo Temple compound of Sheung Wan consists of three separate but abutting blocks. The largest chamber is the Man Mo Temple. The middle, smaller block is called Lit Shing Kung, meaning “all saints” in Chinese. Finally, on the westernmost end stands the Kung Sor, which served as an important community hall. The two gods that are the resident deities at the temple are the Man Cheong and the Mo Tai. Man Cheong, meaning the god of literature, is a legend from as far back as the Qin dynasty. He was traditionally the god of reverence for those who aimed high in the imperial civilian examinations. Mo Tai, meaning the god of war, is a legend from the three kingdoms period. He was a great warrior and had the reputation for being loyal and righteous. As such, he was traditionally the god of reverence for both the police and the bandits. During the early colonial times, the way that the Chinese people took oath was by “burning the yellow paper” and “chopping off the chicken’s head.” By taking these oaths the Chinese people are bound by their declaration and it was an effective legal oath. However, this proceeding must be held in the Man Mo Temple. #godofwar #godofliterature #mantai #motai #manmotemple #taoism #temple #hongkonghistory #hongkongheritage #declaredmonument #sheungwan #travel#citydaytours#china

The Man Mo Temple located on Hollywood Road in Sheung Wan consists of three buildings: the Man Mo Temple, the Lit Shing Temple and the Public Office. It was completed between approximately 1847 and 1862. At that time, the Man Mo Temple was not only a place to worship the two emperors, Wen and Wu, but also a place for Chinese people to handle affairs and arbitrate, so the internal space was quite large. It was not until 1908 that the Hong Kong government promulgated the Man Mo Temple Ordinance, which transferred the Man Mo Temple and its property rights to the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals for management. Man Mo Temple has undergone many renovations over the years and was designated as a Grade 1 historic building by the Hong Kong Heritage List in 1994 and was declared a statutory monument in 2010. It has now become one of the stops on the Central and Western District Heritage Trail and a popular tourist destination where visitors can visit and worship for free. #Temple Culture #Declared Monuments

The Man Mo (or Miu) Temple is for the worship of the Civil / Literature God ‘Man Tai (or Cheung)’ and the Martial God ‘Mo (or Kwan) Tai’. Built in 1847 and compromised of three temples (Man Mo, Lit Shing and Kung So), the largest Man Mo Temple complex in Hong Kong is in Sheung Wan on Hollywood Road.

The nearest MTR is Sheung Wan, but you can also reach the temple via bus no. 26 which travels along Hollywood Road and stops at the Landmark and Sheung Wan Station. Nearby is Shing Wong Street. It used to be home to an array of street art and painted steps, but sadly only a small area remains with it as it was painted over and removed.

The Man Mo Temple in Sheung Wan is located at 124-126 Hollywood Road, Hong Kong. The temple was built as early as the 1840s and was declared a statutory monument in 2010. Wen Wu Temple is very attractive to photography enthusiasts. Light shines through the roof into the temple, forming rays of "Jesus light". Coupled with the curling smoke, the whole picture has a very cinematic feel. No wonder photography enthusiasts flock to this place. Due to the epidemic, the number of people entering Wenwu Temple is limited. When sunlight shines directly on the temple, more photography enthusiasts will line up to enter. In addition, since the temple is filled with smoke, it is best to wear a mask even if there is no epidemic. Finally, Wenwu Temple is a religious place where believers will visit and worship. We hope that all visitors will not hinder or disturb the worshippers, otherwise you may not be able to enter the temple to take pictures in the future. #Local Tour

Free entrance. Yes! From the outside, this temple is deceptively plain. Inside, it’s all red and gold and smoky incense. Light filters down through the hazy smoke. Huge coils of incense hang from the ceiling, each with small red cards attached, where people have handwritten their wishes. As the incense burns, the smoke carries the wishes to the heavens. It really is a beautiful temple. #happynewyear

Such a unique place to visit, had an amazing time and there’s so much to do and see highly recommend

📍 A Day in Hong Kong: Time Travel from Ancient Temples to Medical Marvels 🕰️ Have you ever stepped into a city where the past and present collide in the most poetic way? That was my exact experience on a one-day cultural trip through Sheung Wan and Mid-Levels, where I explored ancient wisdom, colonial history, and even ghostly legends—all in one unforgettable day. 👣🇭🇰 --- ☀️ 9:00 AM — Morning Serenity at Man Mo Temple (文武廟) Start your day where incense coils spiral into the heavens and history hums in the silence. Tucked away on Hollywood Road, the Man Mo Temple is a tribute to the God of Literature (Man) and the God of War (Mo). Walking inside feels like entering a sacred portal—sunlight filtering through incense smoke, the click-clack of fortune sticks, and red wish papers fluttering like petals. 🪔 Tip: Light an incense coil and make a wish. Locals say if your heart is sincere, your wish will "climb the smoke" and reach the gods. --- ☕️ 10:30 AM — Old School Cha Chaan Teng Brunch A few steps away, I stopped at Lan Fong Yuen, an iconic HK-style café (est. 1952). The perfect fuel-up: a crispy condensed milk bun and the legendary "silk stocking" milk tea. It’s fast-paced, slightly chaotic, and completely authentic. Welcome to Hong Kong. 🥖 Must-try: French toast with peanut butter and extra syrup. Calories don’t count today. --- 🧠 11:30 AM — Museum of Medical Sciences (香港醫學博物館) Ready to geek out? Nestled in a preserved Edwardian-style red-brick building, the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences is equal parts eerie and educational. Think antique microscopes, plague history, Chinese vs. Western medicine displays, and even a real dissecting table. 🦠 Highlight: A chilling exhibit on the 1894 bubonic plague outbreak and how it shaped modern Hong Kong’s public health. Who knew medical history could feel like a thriller? 📸 Photo tip: The heritage building facade is Instaworthy with vintage vibes. --- 🍜 1:00 PM — Lunch with Locals I walked downhill into Soho and stumbled upon Kau Kee Beef Brisket Noodles—a legend. The line was long, but the rich broth and melt-in-your-mouth brisket? Worth every minute. --- 🏞️ 3:00 PM — Mid-Levels Escalator + Antique Treasure Hunt Hop on the world’s longest outdoor covered escalator—a slice of daily life and cinematic charm (yes, Wong Kar-wai filmed here). Along the way, I browsed antique shops, dusty bookstores, and hidden galleries. Every corner whispered a story. 📚 Find: An old Chinese medicine manual or vintage apothecary bottles—perfect souvenirs from this history-filled route. --- 🌆 5:00 PM — Rooftop Sunset & Reflections End your journey above the city noise at SKYE Rooftop Bar or The Fringe Club's terrace. I watched as the skyline blushed gold, sipping a Hong Kong-inspired cocktail, and reflecting on a day that felt more like a short novel than a travel itinerary. --- ❤️ Final Thoughts If you're looking to experience Hong Kong beyond the typical tourist checklist, this one-day trail from incense to anatomy is it. You’ll walk through centuries in just a few blocks—and leave feeling like you’ve just met the soul of the city. #HongKongMoments #TripcomMoments #CulturalWanderer #OneDayEscape #HiddenHongKong #MuseumOfMedicalSciences #ManMoTempleMagic
