Religion and calture of the Tang Dynasty

In the Tang dynasty Taoism was a big philosophies. Gauzo built a temple for Louzi and where he was born, so the people could worship Louzi and Taoism more. It was important because it encouraged the people to believe in Taoism and respect Louzi. Before the temple was made some people didn't even know who Louzi was and that's one of the reasons why Gauzo wanted to build the temple. Nature had punishments for the people that were bad and people who were good were rewarded with no punishments.Its important because if the people were not punished they would keep doing what they did and not learn the lesson of why it was bad. When it came to Taoism in the Tang Dynasty it was taken very seriously with all the emperors so as the new emperors kept rising they wanted to keep the religion the same and worship it as the others did.
