Tainan Travel

On Xinmei Street(新美街), also known as Divination Lane, there is Kaiji Martial Temple(開基武廟), also known as Guan Di Gang Temple(關帝港廟). Back when boats could still enter the city center, thetemple was not far from a river port. An unusual feature of the temple is the use of door nails instead of Door Gods, as well as an old bell that has been hanging there since 1858. There are also many historic plaques, such as the "Xing Da Dao(行大道)" of the Jiaqing Reign, and the "Li Ren Ji(立人極)" of the Guangxu Reign, all must-see features of the temple. In most temples, they are all under the deity table, but here they are displayed in a small shrine on the wall due to the small size of temple's interior.
