Zhangzhou Wu Temple has a thousand years of history, and the architectural style of southern Wei is very beautiful, especially under the lights at night, the photos are very good.

Zhangzhou Wumiao is located at the top of Xinlu at the southwest corner of Overseas Chinese New Village in Licheng District. It was built during the period of the Northern Song Dynasty and Zhongxiang Fu (1008 － 1017). During the Ming Wanli period (1573 － 1620) Zhangzhou General Bing Hu Liangpeng, a Xinwu Temple (currently abandoned) was built on the west side of the General Bing Anmen of Kaiyuan Street. The original Wu Temple was converted into a social temple, known as the "Guwu Temple". The Ming Chongxuan was repaired in six years (1633), and the Qingzheng seven years (1729) were rebuilt. The Qingdao Light Decade (1830) and the 25th year of the Republic of China (1936) were repaired twice. During the "cultural revolution", the ancient Wu temple suffered a serious impact, the statues were destroyed, the cultural relics were scattered, the incense was interrupted, and the temple was used for other purposes. It was gradually restored after the Cultural Revolution and was listed as a municipal cultural relics protection unit in 1998. In September 2007, construction was resumed again. On November 29, 2008, the statue held the light law meeting, and the next day, the construction was completed. Now Wu Temple sits in the southwest and faces the northeast, with a construction area of more than 500 square meters. Three rooms are wide, three in, and the top of the hard mountain. The front hall is for the Jade Emperor, and the middle is the patio with two corridors. The main hall is for the holy emperor, the left Guanping, the right Zhoucang. The back hall is for the three-bounded palace, for the heavens, the earth, and the water. The walls on the left and right sides are for the Galan and the land. The cultural relics in the existing temples include the Shiding Furnace built during the Ming Chongxuan period, and the "Ming Chongxuan Mid-Winter Valley Dan Made". The statues of Guandi, Guan Ping and Zhou Cang preserved in the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains of the Temple were hidden by the faithful during the "Cultural Revolution" and are now ready to return to the temple. There are also a pair of stone pillars in the temple that were rebuilt twice in the Qing Dynasty (1830), and a pair of stone pillars that were rebuilt twice in the 25 years of the Republic of China. The Guandi Dadao, which was also stored in the Qing Dynasty, was invited to Taiwan to cruise in 2004. Zhangzhou Wumiao is one of the key palace temples in Zhangzhou City to carry out cultural exchanges between Guandi and Taiwan.

Zhangzhou Wumiao is located on the west extension of Xiuwen West Road, more than 200 meters away from the east gate of the eastern district of Weinan Normal University. Zhangzhou Ancient Wu Temple was built in the period of the Northern Song Dynasty (1008 － 1016). During the Ming Wanli period, Zhangzhou General Bing Hu Liangpeng, in order to facilitate worship, a new Wu Temple was built on the west side of the General Bing Anmen on Kaiyuan Street. The original Wu Temple was once transformed into a social temple, which the folk called "Guwu Temple". The ancient Wu Temple was rebuilt several times and was listed as a municipal cultural relics protection unit in 1998. An environmental renovation and rectification three years ago made the ancient temple re-emerge in front of tourists.
