I was amazed by this new ancient-style Taoist building in Guangzhou!

If you come to Guangzhou and like ancient-style buildings, you must come to Chisong Palace to feel its magnificence.
Chisong Palace was formerly the Puzhitan Temple in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, the largest Taoist temple of Wong Tai Sin belief.
It was first built in 1897, and rebuilt in 2013. It took 10 years to complete and open to the public.
From the sky, it looks like a gourd and a ruyi! It represents the gourd gathering energy, good fortune, and good luck, and implies the universe in the belly.
The style is designed in imitation of the Tang style, and also integrates the Lingnan style.
The main halls are: Linggong Hall, Guanyin Hall, Guandi Hall, Caishen Hall, and Puzhi Hall.
You can come here to pray for children, wealth, luck, etc.
