The Lungshan Temple 龍山寺
I am Mena. I want to intrduce the oldest Buddhist temple in Taiwan. I took a trip to the north part of Taiwan during the Chinese New Year, 2009. According to the Chinese tradition, my parents took me to the Lungshan Temple. We worshiped and wished to have a peaceful year.
Why did we choose the Lungshan Temple? It is the oldest Buddhist temple in Taiwan. It was originally built in 1738. It is noted for its architecture. It has very elaborate roof decorations, large stone columns, wood carvings and gold-leafed Buddhas.
The temple houses images of the Goddess of Mercy (Guanyin) and a number of other gods venerated in Chinese folk beliefs. It is also listed as the second-grade historic site in Taiwan.
