Most Glamorous Hi-tech Prayer Room

Wong Tai Sin Temple is one of the most famous shrines in Hong Kong. It is dedicated to Wong Tai Sin, or the Great Immortal Wong. For 100 million Hong Kong dollars (US$13 million), the 90-year-old temple created a underground prayer room. It is decked with gold and marble and equipped with LED lights and motion detectors. Sik Sik Yuen, the Taoist organization that runs the temple charges each visitor a HK$100 entrance fee, considered a high price for a place of worship. Another HK$300 is needed if you want to make a wish to a deity in the Taoist traditional manner.
