Nezha Temple, located near Ruas de St. Paul's, is one of the two existing Nezha Temples in Macau, China. It was built in 1888.
The Nezha Temple consists of a connected entrance hall and a main hall. The roof of the entrance hall is a gabled roof with a giant turtle and a pearl on the ridge; the main hall is a hip-and-gabled roof with walls made of blue bricks. The Nezha Temple mainly worships Nezha the Third Prince, but also worships many other gods such as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
The Nezha Exhibition Hall, located next to the Nezha Temple, is themed on introducing the Nezha legend and festivals. It displays precious objects used in the annual Nezha birthday, such as incense burners in religious ceremonies, Nezha seals and Nezha lots used by believers; the Nezha sedan chair, banners, and lion dance heads used in processions; and the firecracker statue used in the firecracker grabbing activity. Everyone is welcome to stop by for a free visit.
Address: No. 6, Ruins of St. Anthony Parish, Macau Special Administrative Region, China
