Big Buddha Temple, Keelung, Taiwan.
“Zhongzheng Park is situated on the side of Dashawan Mountain, which is in the east of Keelung City. There is a white statue of the Goddess of Mercy in the park. This 25-metre high statue has become one of the characteristics of Keelung. Inside the statue is a stairway leading to the top. Zhuputan is where worshipers gather on Zhongyuan Festival. The first immigrants to Taiwan used to fight with each other for land. In order to stop the disputes, they set up a temple for yearly worship. The temple was in Gaosha Park during the Japanese occupation and moved to Zhongzheng Park.”
