very nice temple we visited at night the temple closes at 9:30pm and the lighting was beautiful. the temple is very easy to get there; we got off the mrt lungshan temple station and it was right there!

The truth is that you should travel early. When I first came to Taiwan in 2012, it was not long after the free travel was opened, and Lugang was not a popular travel destination, so I could easily integrate here like a local. In Taiwan, religious culture is so prevalent that there are many temples large and small in the streets, and even small Buddhas are worshipped in residential buildings. In Lugang, Taichung, this style is particularly popular. Longshan Temple, as the most cultural and architectural representative place, is worth visiting. Longshan Temple is a southern Anhui-style building, and it is also one of the more complete Qing Dynasty buildings in Taiwan. The Longshan Temple is simple and full of charm, and it is also a very fragrant place. There are many local people who come to incense. Walking in it, savoring the ancient buildings here, you can find the culture and architectural concept of the same origin and roots on both sides of the Straits, from the housing pattern, structure, wood carving murals, door frame panes, to see a mother compatriot cut inextricably and chaotic.

Since the Qing Dynasty, Lugang Longshan Temple has been a brick and a tile. The main hall is the Buddha of Guanyin. You can pray for peace in life, smooth sea, and prosperous business. It will make people feel very comfortable to walk inside. If you come to Lugang, it is recommended to come here for a walk.

Lugang Longshan Temple, the temple in Lugang Town, Zhanghua County, Taiwan, the main temple is Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, this temple and several other temples in Taiwan named after Longshan Temple ── Freshwater Longshan Temple, Panlongshan Temple, Tainan Longshan Temple, Fengshan Longshan Temple, etc. are all divided from Quanzhou County, Quanzhou County, Fujian Province. Longshan Temple, this temple is also the largest and most complete building of all Longshan Temples in Taiwan

One of Taiwan's very ancient temples, when I went in to visit, the interior was being renovated, the eaves were very beautiful, you can see a lot of ancient art carvings, it is worth seeing.

Although there are all over Longshan Temple, the Longshan Temple in Lugang is the most complete Qing Dynasty complex in Taiwan, and the bricks and tiles in the temple are all from Quanzhou on the other side. This ancient temple, known as the "Taiwan's Forbidden City", is soaked in the simplicity and elegance of the years, which makes people sigh that the flowers are like dreams and the past is like smoke.

The Longshan Temple in Lugang is simply beautiful! Most of them retain the wooden structure, the historical mottled color, the exquisite carving process, can not be described in language. The temple is not big, but the beauty, I was deeply attracted from the moment I walked in.
