Zheng Chenggong
Zheng Chenggong (1624-1662), also known as Sen, or Mingyan or Damu, or Fusong in his childhood, was originally a general of the Southern Ming Dynasty. After troops of the Qing Dynasty seized the Jiangnan areas in 1645, he had to defend Xiamen and Jinmen Island managing to prevail in sea battles. In 1661, he led troops to cross the Taiwan Strait and in the next year defeated a garrison of the East India Company (Netherlands) in Dayuan (Tainan City, Taiwan today) Taiwan, starting the reign of the Zheng Family in Taiwan. After he died, civilians in Taiwan successively built temples in memory of him, among which Prince Temple in Yanping, Tainan is the most important.
