/大龍峒について/
Baoan Temple is a very important site in Dalongdong, and Baosheng Emperor is the most important one there.
Baosheng Emperor (Dadi), whose name is Ben Wu, had an audience with Goddess of the West at the age of 17, and was taught how to exorcise evil spirits and alchemy to save people’s lives. In later years, he had attained the perfect Way and the fairy cranes came to pick him up. During Ming dynasty, there was an empress suffered from painful illness and her imperial doctors had no cure, but Dadi came and cured her. When emperor wanted to compensate Dadi with gold, Dadi declined and rode away on a crane. He then was revered as the god of medicine.

「保生大帝」はどんな神様?
中国の民間の言い伝えでは、本名は「呉本」だった「保生大帝」が、17歳の時に「西王母」という女神から妖魔を退治する術を授かりました。彼は一生医者としてたくさんの人を救い、当時の皇后の病気まで完全に治しました。そんな「保生大帝」は最後に皇帝からの賞金を断って鶴に乗って去りました。この話から、彼は後世に「医学の神様」として敬われてきました。
