The Lin Fung Mui (Lin Fung Temple) was built in 1592 and can be found at the north end of Mong Ha Hill on Avenida do Almirante Lacerda. It is more commonly referred to as the Temple of Lotus and is one of the three most famous temples in Macau, behind the A-Ma Temple (Barra Square) and Kun Iam Temple (Avenida do Coronel Mesquita). The Lin Fung Mui has been restored numerous times over the centuries, most significantly during the Qing Dynasty for which it takes is current size and architecture. In front of the temple there are impressive incense altars as well as a statue to the famed visitor Commissioner Lin Zexu, who stayed here on official business in Macau in 1839. The front facade of the temple is attractive, featuring decorative facade reliefs as well as traditional stone lions guarding the entrances into the cluster of halls. Within the interlinking halls, you will find alter shrines to the likes of Kun Iam and Kwan Tai, decorative walls with reliefs, burning incense coils, intricate wood carvings. In the end, we enjoy visiting Lin Fung Mui from time to time. Unfortunately, it is located a fair distance away from the Historic City Centre of Macau so you have to make an effort to find and visit this temple. Buses 1A, 8, 8A, 10, 28B, 28BX, N1B pass this direction for those interested. Hint: If you are specifically targeting temple visits while in Macau, this is definitely one to see. We would recommend it just after the UNESCO World Heritage - A Ma Temple. You can visit along with Kun Iam Temple, which is only 10 minutes walk from here.

In the northern hall, it is dedicated to Kwan Tai God. Moreover, the temple also contains many Buddhist duties status for worshipping. One of the highlights of this temple is the beautiful dancing dragon stone crafted wall with lotus pool on the side

Um dos templos que mais gostei de visitar quando da minha passagem por Macau. Foi construído em 1592 e tem sido restaurado regularmente ao longo dos tempos, este templo também chamado de Lótus tem uma fachada famosa pelos seus baixos relevos em barro, esculpidos no século XIX exibindo cenas históricas e mitológicas. A entrada é guardada por dois leões em pedra. No interior há um altar com a estátua de Tin Hau ladeada por generais guardiões. A seguir há um pátio interior decorado com um friso de dragões retorcidos por trás de um lago com plantas de lótus e uma braseira em metal. O pavilhão principal é dedicado a Kun Iam cuja estátua se ergue num altar decorado em grande destaque. Refira-se que aqui durante o séc. XVII e seguintes ficavam instalados os Mandarins Chineses da província de Cantão quando se deslocavam a Macau.
