About Man Mo Temple

Suspended from the ceiling, oversized incense coils burn continuously, filling the dim, red-and-gold hall with fragrant smoke and golden shafts of light. Visitors come to witness traditional prayers and experience a peaceful, centuries-old retreat set directly beneath Hong Kong's towering modern skyline.
