Walking around Taipei, you can see many temples. It looks like there is one in every street. Some are large, some not much; some have decorated grey pillars, othere are little more than a roof with an altar. It's part of the charm of the country. Apart from these, there are other places of meeting of other religions: I have seen many christian churches, catholic to evangelist, and I was told that there is a mosque near campus. I guess there are some of other religions, but I am probably missing them (language and all that)
Churches are very apparent. Because of the crosses, of course, but also because most of the crosses are illuminated at night. It is rather strange to see a cross in the distance hanging in the dark of the night. These are a couple of examples.
I would say that the one on the right is a catholich church. I am not sure to which branch belongs the one on the left. Many of the crosses I have seen at night are red —and they are not from drugstores—, but I guess that red is a must-have color in these lands if you want to have good luck.
