山城佛寺 Buddhist temple at a mountainous city / 台灣 Taiwan / SML.20140210.6D.30679

An unexpected sighting in Taipei is the placement of Buddhist temples in the city. Unlike other places where temples are usually somewhat spatially separated, here the temples appear to be surrounded by city life. It is is possible that there is limited space and thus buildings must be built adjacent to them. But it is still rather interesting to me.

 

In the photo, the orange building on the right is a Buddhist temple. A residential building to its right, with a banner on its facade for the city local legislative election. And a bus top filled with people waiting to be transported afar on a misty rainy day.

 

Photographed with the Canon EOS 6D + Canon EF 17-40 f/4L USM. Processed in Lightroom.
