Located in Wanhua District, Lungshan Temple is a very accessible temple to visit when you are in Taiwan. I was planning to dine to Huaxi Night Market, so I just dropped Lungshan Temple on the way. It was only in walling distance. So, I suggest you visit Lungshan as well when you go to Huaxi. Lungshan Temple serves as the place for worship for the Chinese folks living in Taipei. #wintergetaway

It is very convenient to visit this place by MRT - Longshan Temple Station. Longshan Temple is a national second-level historic site. It is dedicated to the Guanyin Bodhisattva and represents one of Taiwan's important religious beliefs. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

The Longshan Temple was built in the Qing Dynasty for three years and has always had a lofty social status. Different from the clear attributes of other temples, the main hall of Longshan Temple is the Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it also enshrines the Taoist gods Mazu and Guandijun. It is said that this is because Taipei has immigrants from all over the country, in order to balance the beliefs of each region. Here are the gods. In addition to praying for the world and making good friends, the most noteworthy thing about Longshan Temple is its exquisite temple architecture. Longshan Temple follows the traditional architectural style of southern China. The flying horns, the carved beams and the faades are stacked, especially the algae wells and chic stone carvings of the front hall and the main hall structure, which makes people instantly pass through the distant Qing Dynasty. When the first light is on, it is the most beautiful moment of Longshan Temple. The dragon symbolizing good luck is like a flying dragonfly. The beautiful and gorgeous patterns and carvings fill the whole beam. The moon's charming and charming Longshan Temple is also dwarfed. .

This is a great place to visit if you are in town and the beat of all is that is free! It is also right next to the subway station. The temple is well preserved and you can see local people praying it is well decorated and a perfect spot for memorable pictures.

A small beautiful temple located in the heart of the city. There are a lot of people who go there to worship so be respectful.

A spiritual experience! The temple is beautiful! Enter from the right door and exit front the other one without stepping on the door step. Try the hot ginger tea! You'll find 10 gods (daoism), try to guess who they area based on who is praying to them!

One of the most well known temples inside Taipei city. The temple's architecture is absolutely gorgeous and the religious atmosphere is even so present, at night, the festive displays lights up in an impressive manner. Even in the depth of night, there are many people who comes and pray to the old gods of China. My friends who brought me here explained to me the significance of each god or goddess and the occasions in which people pray to them. It was an fascinating and interesting lesson on religion.
