Che Kung Temple, commonly known among Thais as the "Wheel Temple," is located in the Sha Tin district of Hong Kong. It is a popular temple for both locals and international tourists, especially Thai visitors who believe that spinning the wheel here can "change their fate" and bring good luck to their lives.
Inside the temple is the statue of General Che Kung, a wise and loyal military commander from the Song Dynasty. He is believed to be a deity who protects against evil and brings good fortune. The temple’s highlight is the large "Lucky Wheel," which people line up to spin, with the belief that spinning it will turn bad luck into good and enhance various aspects of life.
Visitors can purchase offering sets that include incense sticks, a miniature wheel, and prayer papers from shops in front of the temple, or take them home for worship. There are also spots to pray for health, career, finances, and love, covering all wishes.
Getting to the temple is very convenient—take the MTR to Che Kung Temple Station and then walk about 5 minutes.
Overall, Che Kung Temple is a must-visit place for worship when visiting Hong Kong, offering beautiful architecture, the faith of the people, and hopeful blessings entrusted to the life-spinning wheel.
