	WONG TAI SIN TEMPLE
		According to legend, when Wong Tai Sin was a 15-year-old shepherd boy, he was taught by an immortal how to refine cinnabar to produce a medicine capable of curing all illnesses.
		Having seen chim widely used in other Hong Kong temples, I didn’t think its practice alone could be responsible for giving Wong Tai Sin its reputation as “the fortune tellers’ temple.” As several chim shakers moved from the colorful main temple to a drab concrete building nearby, I followed along.
		While I no longer had any doubt that Wong Tai Sin was “the fortune tellers’ temple” that I sought, I soon saw that it has much more to offer, as I began exploring the rest of the complex.
