All you can eat Temple
Monday afternoon, Sound had a compensation day due to the community parade on last Sat. so, I turn myself to the family direction and decided to join them for , a Monday Blue turn Red activity.Met up with them at Sogo where they had the exercise in the morning, we supposed to go to Keelung, but due to the wrong highway lane, we were force to go south, this lead us to Tao yung county, but it dosen't matter as I know there are beaches in Tao Yung county. we drove for a while unitl found the way to the sea direction, passing by a small town called " Tsao Lay ", accidentally I found a beautiful temple, asked my wife to stop. we went inside and check, this is a very gourgous temple, with an unique name " The Protection Temple " to look inside. the temple worships more than 300 different Gods -- according to Sound who counted those sculptures and Gods. this is to my surprise, then I realized this is an old temple renovated recently, the temple been theres for 152 years, I was so impressed by the one who come up this idea of collecting all the Tao God and Godness under one roof, this is a " Central Hospital " or a " All you can eat " service to those people who seeking their idea God to solve there problems, in the God's world, there always a priority or importance ranking, I am curious to know how they rank those Gods and how the poeple mutully favor this hybrid religion, but this is a very special experience for us. then we went to Yung An Fishman's wraft, a tourist port right now, enjoy some good sea flavor, I did love the cafe on top of the fish market.
Tuesday to Taichung, a bus journey to release some of my presure, I love the place " National Taiwan Musume of Fine Arts ", nice building, great view, good design and excellent place to sit and do something or do nothing. taking the bus, round trip 460 NT and 5 hours on the road, my way of highway feeling, listing to my favorite tune from my iPod nano, a new way of life.
