Description

Sai Kung Tin Hau Temple is a temple located in the centre of Sai Kung district. Like other ordinary temples, the temple initially served the purpose of worshipping. However, what makes it stood out from other temples is that there was actually a school built within the temple in earlier years. The school was named 'Ordinary'. The primary aim of the school was to provide education for ordinary children who came from the grass-rooted family. The temple now provides services to the community. For instance, it is the venue where elderly can get the application form for the old age allowance.
