so here I am at longshan temple
right here in the background
and I'm with my friend who's going to be our personal
tour guide today because she knows so
much
she's so knowledgeable when it comes to
the religion Taoism the culture
and the custom when it comes to how you are supposed to
behave in such temples so supposedly
once we enter the temple you that is the
entrance on the right so you have to
enter the temple by the right sides and
it says enter over there and come out
exit
so you have cross this instead of
stepping on it because that's considered rude
so depending on the level of Gods
and goddesses the dragon on top of each
of the houses could vary
so how you dispose of the incense stick
you have to use your left hand rather
than your right hand to dispose of
the incense sticks into the pot because your left
hand is closer to where your heart is
and that symbolizes of being more
faithful and more genuine group it's
amazing
yeah you think is amazing thank you
and is it like the architecture
yeah I can and think there are different
and since there are houses that house different gods and
goddesses you go around the temple from
the front to the back and basically go
around with your incense sticks and speak to
the gods and goddesses
and there is a very unique house here
that held the gods for marriage
so as you can see there are loads of
people lining up to speak to the god of
marriage
so the varieties of these offering could
actually vary quite a bit
you could get fruits cookies cookies
right here and even what is this this is
soy bean salad oil and a bunch of other
things so be creative
being one of the most popular tourist destination here in
longshan temple I think we've learned a lot
thanks Leslie
