Man Mo Temple is a very traditional temple situated at the corner of Hollywood Road and Ladder Street. The Temple is dedicated to two deities; the Military deity, (the god of war) and the Civil deity (a 3rd century BC statesman). This is one of the oldest temples in Hong Kong and contains two antique chairs which are used to carry statues of the gods. The most intriguing thing about this temple are the hundreds of large incense cones that hang, suspended from the ceiling. Smoke from the coils fills the temple making it very atmospheric.

This is an active working temple and should be treated as so. Visitors are requested not to take photos and according to custom, menstruating women are also asked to keep away!

The area around here is very Chinese, and the small windy streets and alleys are filled with antique shops and markets. The district was used in the film, "The World Of Suzie Wong". Ladder Street is another interesting road, that climbs up the hill like a ladder!
