Located on the edge of the Atherton Tablelands in Far North Queensland, the Hou Wang Miau Temple and Museum is the last timber and iron Chinese temple in Australia. Built in 1903, the historic temple is one of the most ornate in the world and features corrugated-iron cladding and a spectacular interior of timber and tin, as well as an impressive collection of beautifully preserved cultural artifacts that explore the history of the temple and the social and religious significance of the temple for the region’s Chinese community.
