Day 13 - Fo Guang Shan

1,000 Buddhas and a Brief Visit to Cijin Island

Today, we first went to the Buddha Museum and monastery. Especially in the monastery, we were frequently greeted with smiles. There are at least 1,000 Buddhas in the monastery (a large number already inside the big golden Buddha). Photography was not allowed in all areas of the museum and monastery.

In the afternoon, we had a brief visit to Cijin, which can be reached by ferry in 10 minutes. There, I tried a Taiwanese specialty - Spring Roll Ice Cream - and found it delightful. However, I left out the cilantro.
