There are several Kwan Tai temples (Chinese: 關帝廟) in Hong Kong. Kwan Tai, the Cantonese spelling of Guan Yu, is worshiped in these temples.
Note 1: A territory-wide grade reassessment of historic buildings is ongoing. The grades listed in the table are based on updates [1] and [2] of 8 June 2023. The temples with a "Not listed" status in the table below are not graded and do not appear in the list of historic buildings considered for grading. Note 2: While most probably incomplete, this list of Kwan Tai temples is tentatively exhaustive.
Built in 1976. Part of a cluster of six temples built on a flattened hilltop by the Shau Kei Wan Kaifong Advancement Association (筲箕灣街坊福利促進會). A statue of Red Hare, Kwan Tai's horse, stands in front of the temple. The temple is adjacent to a Kwun Yam temple.
Kwan Tai Temple (關帝廟) The temple is part of a set of three built by villagers at the north of today's Tai Lam Chung Reservoir, on the main routes to Tin Fu Tsai, Tai Hang Village (大坑村), and Kan Uk Tei, with a will that their trips to the markets would be safe. The other two temples are Ma Neung Temple (媽娘廟, a Tin Hau Temple), and Pak Kung Temple (伯公廟) aka. White Tiger Pass Temple (白虎坳廟).
Probably built in 1714. Commonly known as Pak Tai Temple, it is dedicated to Yuen Tai/Pak Tai and Kwan Tai (Lord Guan). The temple functions as an ancestral hall and a temple of Sai Pin Wai. Village meetings are also held there.
For the worship of three deities: Pak Tai (main deity of the temple), Kwan Tai, and Man Cheong (文昌). The temple was moved to So Kwun Po (掃管埔) in the late Ming dynasty (1368–1644) and moved back to the present site in 1948.[3]
Kwan Tai Kung (關帝宮) The temple complex comprises three temples in two buildings: the first building is a Tin Hau temple, built in 1737, to which an annex was later added, housing a Kwan Tai temple[5] (left side on the picture). On its left, Shui Yuet Kung, built in 1788, is dedicated to Kwun Yam and the Earth God.[6]
