Pray and make a wish
The entrance to the temple is a replica of the Great Wall of China. ( This is not the entrance though )
The temple includes a chapel, a library, a souvenir shop and a wishing well.
Amazing view from here
On a clear day you can spot the islands of Mactan and Bohol from here.
Unwind for a while
There are 81 steps in the stair... (representing the 81 chapters of Taoism scriptures)
My friends were enjoying the visit to the Taoist temple
A friendly fisherman. You were not allowed to throw coins in this pond.
Any place is good for taking a selfie!
The wishing well
The view is spectacular
The dragons
Chinese dragons stand on the temple’s roofs like protectors and sentinels of the site
The dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good luck for people
