Info
The Shanghai Wen Miao (Chinese: 上海文庙), also known as Shanghai Confucian Temple, is an ancient temple and was built to pay homage to Confucius. It is the main temple of Confucius in Shanghai, and is similar to the renowned temples as the original Temple of Confucius in his hometown Qufu, and the grand Confucius Temple in Beijing; although the Shanghai Wen Miao is smaller than those two. The temple is located in the Wen Miao Lu (文庙路) in Huangpu District, and just outside the temple near the "Wen Miao Market". The market opens every Sunday morning, and hosts temple fair.
