This temple was built in the middle of the 17th century to worship Quan Conga, the most famous general of the " Three States" time (in Chinese history) who is the resplendent symbol of morality: faith, loyalty, frankness, righteousness... In the sanctuary there are many huge statues of Quan Cong in the middle, Quan Binh on the left and Chau Thuong on his right; all are well- painted in vermilion, gilded and artistically figured.
Constructed similarly to the shape of the Chinese character "Quoc" (country) with decorative subject containing philosophical symbols, the temple, which is so majestic, once, the center of belief of Hoian commercial port town, still keeps a lot of valuable cultural products, esp. the poems composed by Duke Nguyen Nghiem - father of Nguyen Du, the great poet of Vietnam and many generals who came to Hoian in 1775. Quan Cong's temple, though restored many times, retains the traditional architectural style of Hoian. This monument , therefore is quite worth visiting.
