As Chinatown is the hub of Sydney's Asian population, the Sze Yup Temple or Glebe Temple pops up as a surprise in the heart of the Glebe district. The Chinese Taoist temple was built in 1898 by immigrants from the Sze Yup area of China, and is one of only four pre-World War I Chinese temples that still remain active in Australia. The traditional red brick temple is dedicated to 3rdcentury military hero Kwan Ti whose figure is entrenched on the altar in the central hall.
