Huiji Temple - 惠濟宮

When immigrants came to Taipei from Quanzhou in Fujian, China, they brought their patron saint "Kaizhang Sheng Wang." The statue of the god was brought to Taipei about 200 years ago by Huang Chengqing. It is said that when the god was taken to Zhishan, miraculous events occurred. Huiji Temple was built in dedication to the god at Zishanyan in 1752. Later, when Guanyin was worshiped here as well, the temple was also known as Zhishanyan Temple. At the temple is an ink brush stand that is said to confer divine blessing to all who touch it. Many parents bring their children here to touch the stand, hoping it will help them pass their school examinations.


位於芝山岩西側,建於1752年(清乾隆17年)有250多年歷史,清康熙年間,漳州人由石牌開墾逐漸拓展到士林及芝山岩一帶,為感謝神恩便擇定了圓仔山芝山岩作為建廟供奉,是道、佛、儒三教合一的寺廟。惠濟宮正殿祀主神開漳聖王陳元光,代表著漳州人的守護神;後殿樓下祀觀音佛祖,樓上祀文昌帝君。後來又增建鐘樓鼓樓。政府列為三級古蹟及校外教學參訪站。
