The Pu Tain Temple (in the Qe Fong area), though famous in the local scene, is hardly mentioned in my current standing library of texts concerning Taiwan. What exactly is it?

Hello and welcome. My name is Nathan Bryant and I was born and raised in Denver Colorado, USA. While Denver is perhaps one of the most beautiful places in the world, it's hard to be certain unless you see everything else.

To fund this quest, which has started back in August of 2007, I will highlight as an international teacher of history, political science, geography and philosophy.

opening hours
Hello, I read about Guqifeng (Pu Tian Temple) in "lonely planet". In their 7th edition they wrote that this Temple only is open in weekends. I was wondering if this is still true???? I would like to go to this Temple on 22-12-2010, but this is a weekday.... Does anyone know the opening hours on this day or is it closed? Thanks a lot!

Hours of Pu Tian
As of my travelbook, it states it is open daily from 8AM-9PM. The weekends always means more things are happening at the temple though, thus, worth seeing more. If you're going on the weekdays, as far as my guidebook (Rough Guide to Tawain) states, you're good to go. Enjoy!
