Some other deities worshipped here include familiar faces from other nearby pagodas, such as Ong Bon, the god of wealth. And there also appear to be a number of Taoist deities, like the Jade Emperor, enshrined here as well. With the constant mix of historical and mythological figures from different regions and religions, though, it’s not always easy to figure out who is who. But that’s part of what makes these Cholon pagodas so alluring.
