The original temple, translated as "Temple of Many Gods and Goddesses", is located here. As with most things Chinese, religion is seen pluralistically-an example being the Buddhist parable of the blind men and elephant-so the room allows worship of the three main forms of Chinese "religion": Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. The artifacts are original and most date from 18th century China. The signs/placards are used to ask for and give thanks for favors.
