The Confucian Temple or Temple of Confucius of Shanghai (simplified Chinese: 上海文庙; traditional Chinese: 上海文廟; pinyin: Shànghǎi Wénmiào), is a folk Confucian temple in the old city of Shanghai. It is similar to the original temple of Confucius in his hometown Qufu and to the Beijing temple, but on a smaller scale. The temple is located on Wenmiao Road (文庙路) in Huangpu District.
The Wenmiao Market lies around it. The market opens every Sunday morning and hosts a temple fair.
Yushima Seidō (湯島聖堂; lit. 'Yushima Sacred Hall'), is a Confucian temple (聖堂) in Yushima, Bunkyō, Tokyo, Japan. It was established in the late 17th century, during the Genroku era of the Edo period. Towards the late Edo period, one of the most important educational institutions of the shogunate, the Shōhei-zaka Gakumonjo (昌平坂学問所)), or Shōheikō (昌平黌), was founded on its grounds.
The Four Sages, Assessors, or Correlates (Chinese: 四配; pinyin: Sì Pèi), are four eminent figures in the Chinese philosopher and Confucianism tradition. They are traditionally accorded a status akin to sainthood, and their spirit tablets are prominently placed in Confucian temples.
