Amor e Dedinhos de Pé - Joaquim de Almeida (1993) - Lin Fung Temple, Macau

There are two similar sized temple complexes on the Macau peninsula. The first one is the famous Kwun Yam temple (aka Templo de Pou Chai, seen here) on Avenida do Coronel Mesquita. The other temple, located not that far away, is Lin Fung Temple. The shot of the rooftop (see image 3) helped to discover which one was featured in this film, but they both have similar layouts with small alleyways between the main buildings. The last image looks like they constructed some extra, fake walls each side of the frame in the courtyard in front of the main temple building (a small feat given what the production design did to the Taipa Praia and the seafront house).
