The
song
like
chants
of
OOOoooometorfu
🙏
and
the
gentle
clanging
of
gongs
n
cymbals
is
what
greets
one
when
touring
the
grounds
of
the
Classical
Chinese
temple
in
the
district
of
colourful
Mongka
and
yes
this
is
the
district
popularised
by
umpteen
Taiwanese
movies
n
dramas
of
the
years
gone
by
(high
school
dramas
or
triad
gang
movies).
A
district
that
resounds
with
the
colloquial
heartland
flavours
of
Taipei
city.
This
beautiful
temple,
resplendent
in
its
intricate
carvings,
stands
in
the
heart
of
this
locality,
iconic,
quietly
respectful
but
yet
awe
inspiring.
It’s
recommended
for
a
quiet
night
tour
as
the
illuminations
allow
for
a
wonderful
view
of
all
the
beautiful
architecture
n
carvings
which
make
it
a
truly
worthwhile
visit.
Definitely
a
worthwhile
visit
on
your
itinerary
and
what’s
more
there’s
lots
of
yummy
local
hawker
food
n
fare
just
beside
the
temple.
Entrance
is
free
of
charge
but
a
reminder
to
be
respectful
n
to
observe
the
etiquette
of
a
place
of
worship.
Souvenirs
both
blessed
or
just
for
gifts
can
be
purchased
on
site.
A
good
hour
n
a
half
in
the
evening
should
give
one
a
full
perspective
of
this
beautiful
n
iconic
temple
in
the
heart
of
Taipei
🙏
