What else to see in Shanghai? Shanghai Taoist Academy
The first Taoist academy in China designed with contemporary architectural concepts, the main driving spirit behind it is to restore Taoist culture that was eroded by imperial authority.
Religious roles in China may also adopt a system of a few years of study followed by certification exams before you can take up a position. Pretty interesting.
If you're personally interested in Taoist culture, it's worth a visit. Since it's called an "academy," it likely integrates a comprehensive understanding of cultural and historical perspectives. However, if you're looking for deep spiritual cultivation and meditation, traditional mountain Taoist temples would be a better fit.
