Gao Zun Xin

This is not a Buddhist temple. It’s a small Fujianese temple located in the storefront-​basement. If the occupants will even let you in, you are lucky. If anyone speaks even a word of English, you are even more lucky. If you ask to take a photo, you have probably pushed your luck too far. Sometimes it’s just women in the adjoining room playing mahjong. So, unless you are a Fujianese woman, you probably will get a very chilly reception or motioned to leave. But a good look at the altar reveals a local form of Chinese religion from Fujian province on the southeast coast of China. It is not Buddhist, & not mainstream Daoist. The rating is based solely on the uniqueness of this temple in the US.
