Man Mo Temple

Located on Hollywood Road, close to the many nearby antique stores that dot Hollywood and Cat streets, Man Mo Temple is a declared national monument and is said to have been built between 1847 and 1862 by wealthy Chinese merchants. A place of worship dedicated primarily to Man Cheong (god of literature) and Mo Tai (god of martial arts), the temple compound offers a heavily clouded atmosphere that's a world away from the bustle of Central racing past outside.
