Wong Tai Sin Temple is a Taoist temple established in 1921, and is one of the most famous temples in Hong Kong.
We visited Wong Tai Sin Temple on our second day in Hong Kong last June 3, 2011. Since this is our second time in Hong Kong already, we did not go to the places we have visited the first time. We visited what did not fit our itinerary the first time, last year, September 2010.
I actually planned a Hong Kong Cultural Heritage Tour, but the shopaholic in me was not able to resist the temptations of Mongkok shopping district, so most of our time were spent scouring through Mongkok for the best bargains. So off we went to Wong Tai Sin since it was on the list of must see places as outlined by the Hong Kong Tourism Board in the brochures that they gave away at the HKIA.
We rode the MTR, from the Tsuen Wan line to Prince Edward station and then changed to Kwun Tong Line to Wo Tai Sin station. You'll never get lost once you're out of the station, arrows and directions are clearly indicated on the walkways. HK is after all a very tourist friendly city. This huge archway greets you as you enter the Wong Tai Sin complex:
