Foshan, Guangzhou

Our second day itinerary in Guangzhou started at 8.30am . We travelled an hour to another district called Foshan .
This is Huang Fei Hong memorial hall .

Portrait of the one and only REAL Huang Fei Hong

We watched a very commercialized performance of lion dance here by the 'wong fei hoong' trainees .

Frankly, our Malaysian lion dance is better , more youthful & energetic , more lively.

Next, the Ancestral Temple of Guangzhou. It was said that this was the oldest of all temples in Guangzhou. It sat on the center axis too, like most chinese palaces .

the opera stage facing the temple

the fantastic ceramic figurines on the roof tops , so refine .

the second layer is the gold painted wood carvings, awesome 

one of the huge piece of gold painted wood carvings .

devotees left incense in the temple, not burnt

Ip Mun was Bruce Lee's teacher / master

Bruce Lee & Ip Mun

Most surprisngly was the display of Bruce Lee's handwritten letters to his fellow brothers. Very neat cursive handwriting in deed .

look at  the signature

is this familiar ?

There's the Confucious Temple next to it . Many people went make wishes and hang the wishes on this tree.

look at all the wishes printed on red cards

I did too...... I think I have to throw 4 to 5 times to get it done .

must throw hard and get it stayed on the tree

Finally....this piece is mine. Got my wishes on the tree.

So, this was at Foshan suburb.
