Object description

Che Kung Miu , also called Che Kung Temple, are temples dedicated to Che Kung, who was a general during the Southern Song Dynasty in ancient China. He is believed by some worshipers to have been involved in the attempt to keep the Song state alive by bringing Prince Ping and his brother to the South. There are two temples dedicated to Che Kung in Hong Kong: one in Sha Tin and one in Ho Chung. Other temples in Hong Kong are partly dedicated to Che Kung.
