About

A Fujian (Phúc Kiến) assembly hall founded around 1730, dedicated to Bổn Đầu Công, on Hải Thượng Lãn Ông, the street of Chinese herbal medicine.

Why go

One of the oldest assembly halls in Cho Lon: four rows of buildings around a skylight courtyard, dragon and phoenix ceramics on the roof, and a gilded wooden altar made in 1894. Walking from here past the herbal medicine shops on Hải Thượng Lãn Ông, you meet the trading side of Cho Lon of the Hoa community.

Good to know

It is on a busy road with narrow sidewalks. Sources disagree on the street number (264 or 246), so look for it by the name Chùa Ông Bổn to be sure.
