Although there is a minimum of information in English about the temple workings, it is always somewhat of an adventure to find these islands of calm in the sea of crazy urbaness. The Tin Hau Temple is no exception. It is located in Ya Ma Tay, whose claim to fame is being the most densly populated place in the world and home of the "cage men". The temple is to the god of seafarers, as this used to be a little harbour. It is all reclaimed now of course.
The Temple is full of spirels of insence, you can buy the spirals for any person that you want to give luck too, they last for 10 days. The whole place is soo full of burning insence and smoke that the maximim time to explore the inside is about 3 minutes! It is a neat environment and very exotic!
