Sam Seng Temple is a small shrine in Coloane, Macau. It is dedicated to the Three Divinities deity, comprising the imperial deity Hung Seng, Kwan Tai and Tam Kung. There is a temple dedicated to Tam Kung further down the road, which is Avenida Cinco de Outubro.
The bay in front of Sam Seng Temple was originally called Ka Ho Bay, after the village of Ka Ho. However, it has since been renamed Sam Seng Beach. There has been a shrine dedicated to the deity Hung Seng here since the 19th century. When it was reconstructed in 1883, the deities Kwan Tai and Tam Kung were added as patrons of the shrine.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
