Shan-tao Temple

2_2The Tokyo-based Pure Land Mission opened this Buddhist shrine during the Japanese colonial period. The nine-story pagoda beside the temple is used to hold religious books and scriptures, and also an exhibition of Buddhist art which is open to the public. The highlight is a wood carving of the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy almost a thousand years old. It will cost you nothing to get in and enjoy this wonder.
