The Yue Lao Hall will be closed from March 17 for the new hall construction
The "Statues of Yuelao and Couples" were established in 2011 with the intention of blessing the good fortune of worshippers and wishing all lovers in the world to be married. Over the years, the Yuelao Hall has been warmly welcomed by devotees from various places, including local, national, and international visitors. However, due to years of use, the hall's facilities have gradually aged. In response to requests from devotees, the Yuen has decided to rebuild a new hall on the original site of the Yuelao Hall at the Fung Ming Hall Plaza, in order to provide a better environment and experience for worshippers. Construction is scheduled to commence on 17 March and is expected to be completed by mid-October 2025.
During the construction period, the Yuelao Hall will be temporarily closed for worship, commencing from Monday, 17 March until the completion of the new hall. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Please stay tuned and support upcoming activities at Wong Tai Sin Temple.

The Great Offering

Sik Sik Yuen held the Great Offering in 2006, 2011, as well as 2015, and especially held a grand Great Offering ceremony at the Hong Kong Coliseum in early 2017.

The Great Offering is a simple, solemn, and culturally significant ritual performed according to the ceremonial rites of the Hunyuan Sect Altar of Quanzhen School. It is an offering made on behalf of the Hong Kong people to thank the gods and pray for blessings, as well as pray for world peace, the prosperity of China, and the prosperous development of Hong Kong.
The Great Offering can be traced back to ancient blessing ceremonies in which the emperor of the country would personally go onto the altar every year to pray for the national peace and prosperity, as well as good weather. The ceremony follows strict rules of etiquette.

The ten offerings that are dedicated to the gods during the Great Offering are: incense, flowers, lamps, water, fruits, tea, food, treasures, beads, and clothing. The offerings of the ceremony are solemn and clean. The Yuen invites government officials, representatives of religious and regional leaders, and the leaders of affiliated organizations to join the Yuen in making the offering and praying for all the people of Hong Kong.
