Pak Tai Temple on Cheung Chau Island

 The Pak Tai temple was built in 1783. It is dedicated to Pak Tai,
the Taoist "Supreme Emperor of the Dark Heaven."



The statue of Pak Tai has one
foot resting on the carapace of a turtle.


There is a small collection of turtles in a concrete pit in a side area.
Unfortunately the husbandry leaves a great deal to be desired, and the plight
of the poor animals is rather distressing.
