鳳山的龍成宮uff0c座落在五甲夜市旁uff0c在五甲眾多的寺廟中uff0c稱得上是最具規模、最雄偉的廟宇uff0c故俗稱「五甲大廟」uff0c簡稱「五甲廟」。龍成宮主體殿宇建築亦獨步全台uff0c主祀天上聖母、清水祖師、戴府元帥uff0c合稱「三境主」uff0c是五甲地區居民的信仰中心。n龍成宮幾乎等於是五甲廟宇的代名詞uff0c一說到五甲就會想到五甲廟,五甲是前鎮河沿岸僅次於前鎮的繁榮小鎮。本地開庄之起源uff0c可追溯至明鄭成功驅荷登台後uff0c遣派一部分營鎮南下軍屯uff0c此後即有大批福建先民渡海來到鳳山墾殖落戶。沿海移民習慣配掛家鄉媽祖香火或奉金身來台uff0c經打狗港溯前鎮河、鳳山溪在五甲登陸uff0c因此本地早期即有「媽祖港」之地名。n媽祖港舊址在今中山路和五甲路口媽祖港橋附近uff0c是以前通往五甲的門戶。古時前鎮河河面寬敞uff0c冬天枯水期時uff0c河面會浮現沙洲。當時港口旁有小祠一座uff0c內祠媽祖uff0c據耆老相傳uff0c前鎮河下游uff0c水流湍急uff0c時常有人不諳水性溺死於此uff0c居民怪罪水鬼為禍uff0c祈求媽祖顯赫uff0c驅除群邪。果然從此溺水事件大幅減少uff0c後人遂稱為媽祖港。
