Buddhist Temple in Shanghai, VERY busy on New Year's Day !

[@linus631]

Fun fact, New year day (whether Gregorian or Chinese calendar) worshipping & offering at temples are always super crowded.

Great video, Tim! I used to live not too far away from Longhua Temple. Also 0:37, that guy cut the line 🤣

Thanks Ben, I watched your cruise videos, interesting. Get in touch if you are back in Shanghai.

Nice video! Which VPN do you use for uploading videos to youtube?

Hey Tim, this is slightly unrelated and I don't know if you've done this before, but could you make please a vlog about the Chinese Super League or one of Shanghai's 2 rival puxi and pudong football teams? I think that would be very entertaining!

Very interesting! Is this the most popular Buddhist temple in Shanghai, which is why it was so busy?

[@timmytumbler]

It’s the largest and oldest, but there are several others with Jing’an temple probably being the most well known due to its central location and massive golden lions outside.

Longhua Temple is also good, not worse than Jing'an Temple, just not located in a prime location. 龙华寺也不错，并不比静安寺差到哪里去，就是位置没有那么金贵。

This is Longhua

@@timmytumbler I know it so I told that to the other viewers 😎
