Hung Shing Temple, Ap Lei Chau
Hung Shing was a native of Nanhai in Guangdong in the late Tang Dynasty. He was later revered by fishermen as the God of the Seas. Where there are fishermen, there is usually a Hung Shing Temple. The Hung Shing Temple in Ap Lei Chau was built in 1773. After the British took over Hong Kong, a police station was built on the opposite side in Aberdeen, so two flagstaffs were added to shelter the temple from bad luck.
