Wanli
Wannian
Hall
is
located
in
the
Wanli
area
of
Nan
District,
Tainan
City,
Taiwan.
It
was
founded
around
the
seventh
year
of
the
Yongzheng
reign
of
the
Qing
Dynasty
(1729).
The
main
gods
enshrined
are
Ye,
Zhu
and
Li.
Dagangshan
Guanyin
Buddha,
Wang
Chuan,
etc.
The
Wannian
Temple
was
built
for
Wang
Chuan
by
villagers
with
the
surnames
Su,
Du,
Ye,
Lin,
and
Huang
of
Qi
Kunyu
in
ancient
times.
It
is
the
religious
center
of
the
Wanli
area
and
the
main
temple
of
all
the
Jiaotou
temples
in
the
Wanli
area.
On
the
two
sides
of
the
Wang
Shipyard,
there
are
three
thousand-year-old
kings
and
five
thousand-year-old
Wang
Shipang
enshrined,
which
is
one
of
the
characteristics
of
this
temple.
In
addition,
the
door
god
in
the
main
hall
of
Wannian
Hall
is
the
first
in
Taiwan.
It
is
also
the
only
golden
door
god
in
Taiwan
made
by
Master
Cai
Caoru.
The
Sulan
Formation
under
the
corner
of
Wannian
Hall
is
also
the
birthplace
of
the
Sulan
Formation
in
Taiwan.
According
to
legend,
the
King's
Boat
of
Wannian
Palace
was
first
found
stranded
on
the
seashore
by
the
villagers
of
Xishu
Village.
They
tried
to
pick
up
the
King's
Boat
and
the
statues
and
bring
them
back,
but
they
couldn't
drag
them
back.
Later,
they
were
discovered
by
the
villagers
of
Wanli
and
towed
back
for
worship.
The
King's
Boat
contained
Ye
Zhu
The
thousands
of
golden
statues
and
wall
pictures
of
Li
Sanfu
were
later
built
by
the
people
of
the
two
villages
respectively
to
worship
the
Wannian
Palace
and
the
Wanhuang
Palace.
As
a
result,
Xishu
got
the
statues
and
wall
pictures,
and
Wanli
got
the
golden
statues
and
the
king's
boat.
At
first,
the
Wang
Shipong
of
Wannian
Palace
only
had
one
royal
ship
that
carried
Sanfu
Chitose,
which
was
enshrined
in
the
North
Wang
Shipyard.
Later,
Wannian
Palace
separated
the
five
royal
ships
from
Nankun
and
Tianfu
and
built
another
royal
ship.
It
is
enshrined
in
the
South
King's
Shipyard.
During
the
ceremony,
both
the
King's
Boats
will
be
renovated,
but
only
the
North
King's
Boat
will
go
out
to
patrol
the
river.
