The structure is elegant and simple, and in order to avoid the strong northeast monsoon along the coast Therefore, the overall building height is relatively low compared to the common traditional temples. After following the signs into the alley, you can see many old street paintings along the way. There are so many cute painted tiger statues placed along the alley. They are super cute and good for taking photos! The painted little tiger extends from the path on the right side of the temple to the back of the temple. You can enjoy it while walking.
