Goddess Golden Flower (金花聖母), also known as Kam Fa Neung Neung (金花娘娘), is a prominent folk deity in southern Chinese religious tradition, especially in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hong Kong. She is widely honored as a protector of fertility, childbirth, and young children, and her cult remains deeply rooted in Cantonese-speaking communities.

The preparatory ceremony will be held on the 16th day of the fourth lunar month, during which temple officials will perform rituals to appease the spirits of the underworld. They will burn paper offerings (money, clothing, and food) in four locations on the temple and island to pray for peace.
