Introduction:
【Sanxia Qingshui Zushi (Divine Ancestor) Temple】Qingshui Master Temple was built in 1769, destroyed by an earthquake in 1833 and rebuilt in 1867. However, during 1895, it was burned down by the Japanese army. After World War II, the restoration was led by the renowned artist Li Mei Shu. The restored temple presents refined carvings and sculptures and it is the work of Taiwanese artists. Qingshui Master is also known as Machang Master or Penglai Master. He was an expert in medicine and a wizard. In memory of Qingshui Master, local people built a temple to worship him. The temple is a third grade historic site and is one of the three major temples in Taipei. http://eng.taiwan.net.tw/m1.aspx?sNo=0011367&id=R126&jid=247
