Tainan Travel

The Zheng Ancestral Shrine (鄭氏家廟)was built in 1663 by Zheng Jing, oldest son of Koxinga. It enshrines his father Koxinga and mother Concubine Dong. In recent years the outer wall has been removed, taking away the barrier between the path and road, allowing easier access for tourists. This shrine is another important place for learning about Koxinga in Tainan aside from Koxinga Shrine. The Main Hall enshrines Koxinga’s ancestors in China and overseas and his wife’s spirit tablet. Inside the shrine, god statues, the old building interior, ancient well and large number of old photographs take the tourists back to the days when the Zheng family ruled over Taiwan. It is a treasure chest of Taiwanese history.
