It won’t be wrong to say that the culture of Taiwan is very much influenced by the ideologies of Confucius. There has been even a time when Confucius temple were built majorly to provide the citizens with a place of peace. They were considered essential event venue and so had majestic and regal architecture. Qishan Confucian Temple is perhaps the grandest of all in the province. Located on the hill of Qishan, the temple provides panoramic views of the city merged with a sense of quiet and spirituality. One can easily spend few hours praying here and enjoying the calm, which contrast much to the noise of city walls. It is always less crowded so visit it any day and admire the temple and everything it has to offer.
