Shanghai City God Temple (Old City God Temple), It is a famous Taoist temple in Shanghai. Most of the tourists coming to the City God Temple are admiring the snacks here and the name of the Yu Garden. However, they do not know that there is a Taoist temple in the south of the Yu Garden, which is quiet in the midst of chaos, and it is a time-honored blessing resort. After having a good time, you can come here to have a look and feel the local religious culture.
The City God Temple in Shanghai was built in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty (1403-1424), a little earlier than the Yu Garden, but it was severely damaged during the "Cultural Revolution", and then restored to its full appearance after restoration. There are nine halls in the temple, including the Main Hall, Jiazi Hall, God of Wealth Hall, Cihang Hall, City God Hall, Niangniang Hall, Parents Hall, Guansheng Hall and Wenchang Hall.

Tourist Evaluation of Old Town God Temple Scenic Spot ：
@ Go to the computer : The City God Temple, located in the Yuyuan Garden Scenic Area, is small and has a long history. It is said that it was built in the Ming Dynasty. The entrance ticket is 10 yuan. The incense is very popular. There are people inviting incense and buying Buddhist utensils at the door. You can visit the Yu Garden and the temple by the way.
@ Space is different from me : The first time I went to Shanghai, I was recommended to visit the City God Temple. There are many ancient buildings, foreigners and snacks here. Unfortunately, Nanxiang Steamed Bun was abandoned by too many people (who had to catch a plane). The City God Temple was not big, and the ticket was only 10 yuan. After a brief walk, you can also go outside to the Bund to see the Oriental Pearl Tower from afar. I feel very good here!!!
@ AMGIL When I was young, I always liked to walk slowly to the City God Temple, buy some snacks, see a wide range of gadgets and commodities, walk around the Jiuqu Bridge, and then sit in the teahouse in the center of the Jiuqu Bridge, on the tables and chairs near the window, taste the Longjing, and watch the endless flow of people outside the window. Nowadays, there are still so many people. Sitting in the teahouse is a luxury. You can only sit by the Jiuqu Bridge and take some photos to recall the good old days.
