Temples are buildings for ancestral worship by the local communities.They are generally built by the funds raised by the local inhabitants.Temples are the most common type of buildings to be seen all over Hong Kong.The gods worshipped in the temples are usually related to the lives of the inhabitants.For instance, most Hong Kong people relied on fishing to make a living during the 18-19th century, so most temples had gods like the Goddess of Tin Hau, who looked after the fishing community, and also Lord Hung Shing, who was accurate in weather prediction and blessed the fishing community with fine weather.On top of that, as Chinese people stressed the significance of achievements and the spirits of honesty and bravery, there are a lot of Man Mo Temples in Hong Kong such as one in Sheung Wan and one in Tai Po.
