泉州天后宫
Quanzhou Tianhou Temple
Quanzhou Tianhou Temple is one of the important existing Mazu belief centers, located near the south gate of the ancient city and the old port channel. The layers of temples, decorative roofs and ceremonial spaces reflect the tradition of sailors and merchants praying for protection before dangerous voyages, and also show how Fujian communities spread their beliefs to a wider region along with coastal migration and overseas trade networks.
