The Lotus Lake felt like a cross between Disneyland and Chinese religions. They like their stuff big and gaudy. The Taoist status was just that. The whole place felt a bit plastic and shoddy – though interesting.
Photography – Taiwan – Lotus Lake – Dragon and Tiger Pagodas

But interesting none-the-less. Lotus lake with its huge statues and the Tiger and Dragon pagodas was different to anything I’d seen before.
