I came to an altar which was probably the main altar in this temple. The desks and cushions were placed in front of it. And some people were just offering prayers. Like always, I didn't know what kind of deities were enshrined here. Yet everybody here wore a serious expression. So I thought it could be believed that those who prayed here would receive blessings.

The young man in this photo wore also taking on an eager look. And the dragon on the wall watched how he behaved.
