Heavenly Queen Temple is a large Taoist temple dedicated to Mazu, the Chinese sea goddess, and is considered the largest of its kind in Australia. Set along the Maribyrnong River, the complex features traditional Chinese architecture inspired by Beijing’s Forbidden City, expansive gardens, and a prominent gold-painted statue of Mazu. Easily reached from nearby trails, the temple is open daily from around 9:30 am to 3:30 pm, and with free admission, it's a culturally rich and visually impressive stop along the river corridor.
