DETAIL
According to legend, Sishou (Four Beasts) Mountain from a distance appears as though a tiger, leopard, lion, and elephant are gathered here, and hence its name. The temple is located at the foot of Tiger Mountain, with a commanding location. The magnificent palatial temple overlooks the Taipei basin, symbolizing the Jade Emperor Lord guarding his followers.
