I Shing Temple (also known as I Shing Kung) was built by the residents of six villages nanely the Sai Tau Wai, Tung Tau Wai, Lam Uk Tsuen, Chung Sum Wai, Fuk Hing Tsuen and Yeung Uk Tsuen in Wang Chau, Ping Shan.

The Temple, which literally means a “temple of two gods”, was originally a small temple for the worship of the deities Hung Shing and Che Kung. According to the inscriptions on the temple bell, which is the oldest surviving relic, the temple was probably built in the 57th year of the Kangxi reign (1718) of the Qing dynasty.

It is a grey-brick, two-hall structure with an open courtyard and a chamber on each side. A full restoration of the temple was undertaken by the Architectural Services Department in 1996 and was then declared a monument.
