Wen Wu Temple

Wen Wu Temple overlooks Sun Moon Lake. It is a Temple constructed to honor Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. (The BIG 3) People visit it to worship Confucius, Kuan Yu and Yuehfei, who represent traditional Chinese virtues of loyalty, filial piety, compassion and righteousness. (Taken from my tour Bus information sheet)
The painting and colorful details are awe-inspiring. The architecture and roof lines are so Chinese. There are little statues lined up on the corners of the roof that completely tripped my fascination switch.
