The Xizhi Gongbei Temple (Chinese: 汐止拱北殿; pinyin: Xīzhǐ gǒngběi diàn) is a traditional Taoist temple located on Sanxiu Mountain in Xizhi District, New Taipei, Taiwan. Zhenren Lü Dongbin, known locally as Hianggong (Chinese: 仙公), is the principal Deity worshiped at Xizhi Gongbei Temple. Every year, from late November to late December, the temple is also a popular tourist spot for maple viewing.[1] There are various hiking trails around the Xizhi Gongbei Temple.[2] The cityscape of downtown Xizhi and the mountains in the distance can be viewed after following the stone steps up to the Chuanliu Pavilion.[3]
