Tourists and locals were entering the grounds. Once there it was movement and people and noise and incense smoke completely removed from the bustle of the city.
The temple decoration was over the top
If there is such a thing as 'Chinese Baroque' this temple might qualify.
But I don't believe the worshipers paid much attention to it.
There were 2 of the very large incense burners.
An amazing place.

Love the photos! Wow, the dragons have 4 claws as seen in Okinawa. In mainland Japan, they typically have 3 claws. (I never paid attention to them until someone told me that it was to show respect to the ancient Chinese Dynasty who used those with 5 claws.)
