Come visit! The Quanzhou Tonghuai Guan Yue Temple not only helps with promotions and wealth, but also many other things!

Quanzhou Tonghuai Guan Yue Temple has a history of over 1000 years and is one of the five ancestral temples of the Guan Gong faith in China. It is also the largest existing martial temple in our province. It has long been prosperous with incense burning, and there are many followers among the people. The predecessor of the Tonghuai Guan Di Temple was a water god temple built during the Song Dynasty. As a coastal city, for the people of Quanzhou who lived by the sea, the water god was more related to their own lives and income than other deities at that time, and praying for the water god's protection had more practical use. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, who was convinced by Guan Yu, ordered the construction of seven Guan Di temples in Quanzhou, one of which was converted from the sea god temple. As the god of wealth, Guan Di is popular throughout the country, but in Quanzhou, his services are particularly extensive. Not only for promotions and wealth, but for any little thing in life, locals like to come here to burn incense and worship—praying for academic progress, for success and fame, for daily wealth, and also for family harmony and good health.
