Cao Dai Temple in Vietnam

hihi! Not long ago I was in Vietnam holiday-ing.. and during fri cell group I was sharing about this vietnamese religion and their interesting temple.. there is this group of people in Vietnam who call themselves the Cao Dai Sect, and they believe in the Cao Dai religion (btw Cao Dai means 高塔, tall tower). Cao Dai religion is actually a combination of 4 existing religions: Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity and Confucianism. Below are some pictures I've taken.
