New Taipei City Travel

In the mountain behind Pinglin Junior High School, the Guanyin Statue was originally a Japanese temple. 40 feet in height, the statue not only is a local landmark but also the tallest bronze Guanyin statue in Northern Taiwan. A round trip between the trailhead and statue takes only 15 minutes, which can be a good easy exercise for the visitors.

In the era when “Café de Coral" and "Mark Six Lottery" were still popular, the "Shibawanggong Temple" demonstrated its luck at that time, attracting all the players from across Taiwan, with pilgrims still till this day. The main worship here is the "eighteenth loyal dog Wang Gong ". It is rumored that the eighteen Wang Gong was killed when they went out to sea. Therefore, please remember to use hot food for them to shake off the cold when worshipping. It is worth mentioning that Wang Gong’s image is not only open to touching and prayers, but also has different meanings for different parts. For example, “Touch the dog’s head to live in a mansion, touch the dog’s body for wealth, touch the dog’s mouth for fortune, and touch the dog’s tail for a partner. Touch the dog's belly for a good journey, touch the dog's ear to make money, and touch the dog's foot for gold and silver.”
