Che Kung was a military commander in ancient China and protected the Chinese Emperor from the Mongol invasion. Therefore, nowadays he is worshipped as a God of protection in Hong Kong. Thousands of people come to his temple annually on his birthday to worship him and turn a special wheel of fortune.

It is believed that if you turn this wheel three times, it will bring you good fortune in the coming year. The birthday celebration is held on the second day of Chinese New Year, so make sure you book a hotel in advance. Moreover, you can stay for a couple of days in the city and enjoy nationwide festivals.
