RE: 📷 A Chinese Temple + Announcement on Hamburg trip post | 一座庙 + 关于汉堡之旅帖的告示 (by @ace108)
Chinese guardian lions or Imperial guardian lions, traditionally known in Chinese simply as Shi (Chinese: 獅; pinyin: shī; literally: "lion"), and often called "Foo Dogs" in the West, are a common representation of the lion in imperial China.
Thanks for your comment.
Although most are lions, I think I remember seeing some having Qi Lin instead of lions.
