- Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple
Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple was founded in 1921. When Taoists priests were looking for a site for the construction of a temple in Kowloon City, Master Wong Tai Sin instructed them with spirit-writing thus: “This is an auspicious site, like the wing of the phoenix, and is most suitable for erecting a temple for the religion.” In August of the same year, Sik Sik Yuen was founded as the management body.
