They practiced there

The courtyard of the Confucius Temple was deserted with only stone statues

The mother came to the temple with her baby

The blossoms were in flower in Glover Garden

Three guards came up the steps of the Chang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall at a brisk tempo

The statues of Jizo were lined up

The figure stopped in the dim lane

The statue was pointing at the sky

The bicycle ran the narrow street

The inside of the hall was dim

Every shop had a signboard witten in Traditional Chinese characters

The golden pig showed a confident look in front of a Chinese restaurant

A mother walked with a baby buggy

The cat's gaze, though tame, was sharp

Many motorbikes were parked in the lane

The cat was lying on the floor

Many apples were displayed on the table

A carny was performing

She slept comfortably on the bench in the precinct

Two men were in the passage

A number of incense sticks were stuck in the incense burner at Lungshan Temple

Many pedestrians came and went in front of the lockers

The woman knelt down in front of an alter

The anonymous silhouettes were walking

One woman and one boy were sitting on the steps

The street was crowded

An old man appeared to be relaxing in a chair in the precincts of Lungshan Temple

The inside of the window was shining

Two women were standing talking in Lungshan Temple

Two bicycles passed by me

The worshippers were reading the sacred text by candlelight

A boy dribbled past me on the street in Asakusa

The woman lit the candles in the dim precinct

The incense burner in front of the main hall was pouring out the smoke

After a while, the woman disappeared from the alley without a trace

The pedestrians were moving

The soldier wearing a white helmet was holding a rifle

The eye was glittering silenty

The man started to smoke

The shadows occupied the most of the road

A man stood still at a corner

The street was busy

A food stall did business

Two cats relaxed under the truck

Many motorcycles were parked in front of the headquarters of the Bank of Taiwan

Many tables and chairs were placed in the street

The memorial hall was seen on the other side of the gate

The street was crowded with many motorcycles riding along with pedestrians

The guardsmen raised their hands just the same

A man was cooking in the messy kitchen and a family was eating at a table in the back

The guards with shiny helmets were coming up the steps of the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, and I could see the Main Gate

There was a temple in the messy market

Some old men relaxed in the cloister of Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall

The man worked busily
