We attended the Lion Dance show in the Wong Fei-Hung section of the temple. Growing up we saw a few numbers of Lion Dances but none could compare to this one. Plus attending the Lion Dance in a Wong Fei-Hung dedicated part of Foshan held much more meaning. Couldn’t help thinking about the movie. Once Upon A Time In China 4. With Wong Fei-Hung’s golden lion! Definitely a must-do in Foshan!

http://blog.blue-harmony.com/post/80564493226/one-of-the-things-you-will-notice-in-macau-is-that

One of the things you will notice in Macau is that there are small shrines dedicated to Chinese deities throughout the city. In addition to the one we saw next to the Ruin’s of St Paul, we ran into two other ones. They were a bit remote or off the main streets/attractions. There were no people there but they look well taken cared of, giving them an eerie and charming feel. So keep an eye opened when you wander around Macau! Reblogged this from blueharmonytea.

After Macau, we travelled to Foshan, home of many martial art styles as well as martial artists and cultural heroes. The Zumiao Ancestral Temple is located downtown and is definitely a must-see in Foshan. The setting and its content is so rich in culture! Here are some of the mythical animal sculptures found throughout the temple. Stay tuned as there is much more to come! Reblogged this from blueharmonytea. Reblogged this from blueharmonytea.

Another show and highlight in the Ancestral Temple was a martial art demonstration. These gentlemen were throwing impressive blows with lightning quick movements, so much that it was to maintain proper focus on them with the camera. Again, this performance was elevated by being on Wong Fei-Hung’s grounds! Reblogged this from blueharmonytea. Reblogged this from blueharmonytea. Reblogged this from blueharmonytea.

Macau is mostly known for its casinos and hotels but they are also plenty of interesting cultural places to visit, notably the A-Ma Temple. It is dedicated to Mazu (妈祖),goddess of the sea protecting fishermen and sailors. It is said that Macau’s name is derived from the temple’s name, as it is also known as Maa Gok in Cantonese. It is worth visiting even though it is quite small compared to other temples and it is among Macau’s World Heritage.

There is a show happening at one of the Wynn’s entrance, where every half an hour something comes out of a bronze globe shaped like Earth. On the ceiling there is a representation of the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac. As the lights go off and a dramatic music starts, the globe opens in half to unveil an imposing bronze dragon raising from below. As the majestic animal raises and rotates, the ceiling tears open to fiery visuals. We definitely recommend to pass by the Wynn in Macau for this!

When we visited the Ruins of St. Paul’s in Macau, we found this small temple next to it with a small shrine dedicated to Tu Di Gong (土地公), the deity people used to worship for the weather. Nowadays, it is more for wealth and good health. Reblogged this from fyeah-asian-history-art. Reblogged this from fyeah-asian-history-art. Reblogged this from blueharmonytea.

Foshan is home to many martial art styles and artists, most notably Wong Fei-hung (黄飞鸿) and Yip Man (叶问). It was really great to be able to visit Foshan, the Zumiao Ancestral Temple and the sections dedicated to these folk heroes. Many oversea Chinese, like ourselves, grew up on their stories and movies. The. Once Upon A Time In China. Series with Jet Li and Vincent Zhao are stories based on the life of Huang Fei Hong, whilst Donnie Yen portrayed Yip Man in the eponymous movie as well as Tony Leung in.
