The temples in Hong Kong are rich in preserved quality and history. On the first full day of our trip, we visited a temple and a convent. The Temple of Wong Tai Sin, the Daoist God of Healing, was vibrant in color. The wooden buildings at the Chi Lin Nunnery were constructed without nails, and some are over 1,000 years old.
Such a colorful country! I'm jealous!
ReplyDeleteIt is extremely vibrant in many ways - especially their gardens and places of worship. Unfortunately since the British return of HK to the Chinese govt, many sacred spots have been torn down to make room for more profitable structures. Though they are quite considerate by adding greenery in every available space.
