While Marc and I were walking towards the Botanical Garden, we passed by a small two story temple whose name I can no longer recall. I do remember black being its predominant color so unlike the multi-colored temples we had seen thus far. Anyway, I loved the look. The pictures we took do not do the temple justice.
Some lanterns hanging from above the main entrance facing the street
The main floor with the altar

The info for the Taiwanese Bu Cheng Shih Sz Yamen or the old administration building and residence of the former provincial governor during the Qing Dynasty.

Coming to the Botanical Garden was like hitting two birds with one stone for us. The National Museum of History was next to it saving us travel time.
