The Best Attractions In Madou

A Fantasyland of Taoist Temples Kaohsiung, Taiwan

Southern Kaohsiung is Taiwan's largest port and second largest city. Travelers in Kaohsiung usually find time to visit Lotus Pond, a riot of colorful Taoist and Buddhist temples both large and small. Each temple or pavilion is dedicated to a different god and decorated in an uber-Disney style.

Walk into the dragon's throat and out a tiger's mouth which symbolizes turning bad luck to good fortune while inside, paintings depict China's 24 obedient sons, and scenes of heaven and hell. Chinese temples certainly manage to liven up the entire religious scene!

Famous Confucius Temple in Tainan and Foguangshan Monastery

There was one last sight in Tainan that travelers visit, Confucius Temple. It sometimes seems that everyone has a twisted Confucius quote. Heavens knows, Marine Steve does but joking aside, the Confucius Temple in Tainan was built in 1666 and was the highest official institution of learning in Taiwan. Reconstructed more than 30 times due to war and natural disasters, there are 15 structures inside the temple including a museum.

And just like Universities and Colleges today, only those who passed a stiff examination were allowed to study here. Confucius was a thinker, political figure, educator, and his teachings formed the foundation in China on education and how an individual should live his life and interact with others. A man of his times...

Indian Temples Music in New Delhi India

This video shares some of the temples I went inside while in New Delhi, India.

As you may know I absolutely love the study of religion and philosophy. As both an American and a Christian it was a very unique experience to be invited into several temples. I think i was the only person in the group to go inside some of these unique spaces.

I will also share some videos of older (both active and inactive) temples at Kajaraho, in Bishnapur, and a variety of other locations.
