The Kaishan Tablet

The Kaishan Tablet


Temple priors in residence directed regular worship activities at Nankunshen Daitian Temple from its founding through to the late Qing Dynasty (early 1900s). The Kaishan Tablet is located with the spirit tablets of all former priors. It is inscribed on two sides and represents an important part of temple heritage. Inscriptions on the tablet read:

Wan Su is Truly Master Wu” the early evening of August 15th in the 16th year of Emperor Jiaqing (1811)

Bestowed by the Southern Yuan to Master Hong” noon of March 13th in the 8th year of Emperor Tongzhi (1869)
