One of the busiest temples in Hong Kong and a well known tourist attraction is the Sik Sik Yuen Wong Tai Sin Temple.

 

Though I’ve visited the Wong Tai Sin temple a few times before, it’s always interesting for me to be reminded of what my life at Tainan used to feel like …

    Thanks. It's not -that- big, but in HK land is hard to come by. The monastery next to Diamond Hill does an even nicer job of spreading around with nice Chinese style architecture.
