In the Lit Shing Temple, Taoism and Buddhism coexist in harmony. Inside, you’ll see statues representing gods from both religions; you’ll easily recognize the gilded ones depicting Buddha.

Worshippers offer the gods fruit and incense, usually in the form of bunches of long sticks they hold in their hands while praying and then leave in large gilded containers.

At the end of prayers, a gong is repeatedly rung to get the attention of the gods.
