Damsuyongsansa Temple is small in size but has a magnificent architectural beauty that utilizes dragons.

📍Damshui Longshan Temple 🏨 Unique charm of this place: It's not just Taipei's Longshan Temple that's famous! Damshui Longshan Temple is small in size, but it stands out for its magnificent architectural beauty utilizing dragons. Elaborately carved dragon decorations are placed all over the temple's roof and entrance, giving the impression that the dragons in the legend are guarding the temple. Also, it is used as a religious space for locals rather than a tourist attraction, making it a special place where you can experience the real life and culture of Taipei people up close. 📝 My review: Compared to Taipei's famous Longshan Temple, it is smaller in size, but Damshui Longshan Temple definitely has its own charm. In particular, the delicate interior utilizing dragons was very impressive, and it retains the architectural style of traditional Taiwanese temples, giving it a strong historical feel. Since there aren't many tourists, I was able to enjoy the quiet and calm atmosphere of the temple, and I was able to get a glimpse of the daily religious life of Taiwanese people by watching the locals worshiping. If you are looking for a place where you can feel the real local culture, not a crowded tourist spot, this is a place I recommend! #ChinaTravel
