Fatos rápidos: Stepping inside, you walk into an incense-thick chamber where carved wooden deities and lacquered altars glow beneath dangling lanterns. A tucked-away ritual involves tossing a coin into a central urn to test your luck, and visitors are often struck by the dense, almost theatrical arrangement of Taoist and Buddhist icons.
Destaques: Step through a narrow doorway and you’re greeted by a cloud of incense and the low metallic clink of prayer bells, every surface crowded with lacquered altars and vividly painted statues that seem to lean toward you. Legend says the sanctuary was founded in 1909 by Taoist worshippers, and longtime locals still leave red joss-paper and tiny cups of tea on the altar as a personal bargain with the deities.
