Tianhou Temple: An Oasis of Tranquility in the Midst of Shenzhen

Even though mega-cities can be exciting, it is sometimes the places where you can escape the hectic city life you will remember most when thinking back on what made a travel destination special. After reading Tianhou Temple, Shenzhen’s Soul I can understand why the author Steve Peer calls the temple the soul of the city. With an almost 600-year-old history, Tianhou Temple is like an oasis of tranquility in the midst of a busy metropolis, where people can reflect on the past and dream about the future.
