"Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin is the most popular Taoist temple in Hong Kong. It is believed that Master Wong, who was a shepherd, had the power of healing and achieved spiritual enlightenment and immortality. This year marks the 85th Anniversary of the temple and it¡¦s a great opportunity to learn all about this revered healer. With this celebration coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Lantern Celebration and China's National Day celebrations, Sik Sik Yuen is hosting a special lantern display illustrating the life of this Immortal." - Quoted from Hong Kong Tourism Board
