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.

Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon is in line between the Earth and the Sun.  A partial solar eclipse can be seen in Hong Kong on 9 March 2016.  It will begin at 8:05 a.m. and end at 9:57 a.m. with the maximum eclipse occurring at 8:58 a.m.  The eclipse magnitude is 0.331. It means that one-third of the Sun’s diameter will be obscured by the Moon.
