佛寺蹲獸 Chinese imperial roof decoration (roof-figures) of a Buddhist temple / 台灣台北 Taipei, Taiwan / SML.20140210.7D.51740
The rooftop of this Buddhist temple features intricate details of dragons painted in vibrant colors. These figures are traditionally used to decorate Chinese imperial roof tops, and it shows influence here towards temple designs. In historic China, the color yellow and the dragon figure is reserved for the emperors only. in Taiwan, such restriction obviously does not apply.
