1. Description of Our Community

The Quan Chou people move to Yung Ho very often. Because the residents live in Taipei (The Da Long Dong, Pao An temple) made a formal visit to Pao Sheng Monarch , the way was remoted, and passing through Xin Dian Stream. At that time, it didn't build Chong Chang Bridge, and socialized only by the ships. During the summer, when typhoons came or had a heavy rain, that caused flood to boom, then hinder the route, that was very inconvenient in that time. The villages built the temple and sacrificed Pao Sheng Monarch. The followers spread through Xi Chou of Yung Ho and Wa Yao of Chong Ho.
