Tianhou Palace  
  Tianhou Palace
   Tianhou Palace is located on Tianhou Street near the south gate of the city. Tianhou--also called Mazu--is a goddess who is believed to watch over sailors at sea and provide for their safely. In southern China, there are many temples built solely for making sacrifices to her. This palace is the oldest and largest one. The magnificent main hall and back hall have stood for thousands of years and are still in good condition. In the main hall, you can see vividly carved patterns in the windows and various reliefs showing the culture of Taoism. There is also a newly opened museum showing the development of ties between the mainland and Taiwan.
