Man Mo Temple
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Man Mo Temple or Man Mo Miu (traditional Chinese: 文武廟) is a temple in Hong Kong, China, that reveres the God of Literature, Man Tai (文帝), Man Cheong （文昌） and the God of War, and Mo Tai (武帝) or Kuan Ti, Kwan Yu（關羽). It was built after two gods, Man the god of literature and Mo the god of war.
The temple itself also made an appearance in the video game Shenmue II for the Dreamcast and Xbox consoles. You can explore the temple and its grounds, however its locale in the game is different from its true location.
The one on Hollywood Road, Sheung Wan was built in 1847. It has been managed by Tung Wah Group of Hospitals since 1908. It is one of Grade I historic buildings in the District.
The one in Tai Po has been listed as a declared monument of Hong Kong.
The Man Mo temple is open from 8:00am to 6:00pm daily.
