This cultural guide does not require login, process reservations or collect names, email addresses or payment information through forms.

Browser storage

Your optional analytics preference is remembered in this browser. The current site no longer exposes comparison, saved-trip or personal arrival tools. Records saved by an earlier version may remain on your device; this redesign does not read or automatically erase them. You can remove them by clearing this site’s browser data, which also resets your analytics choice.

Optional analytics

If configured, Google Analytics 4 loads only after you accept analytics. Interaction events describe cultural topics, story identifiers and map actions, not the text you type in search. Page tracking excludes URL queries and fragments. Accepting analytics does not grant advertising consent.

Optional analytics is not configured in this preview.

Learning checks

Answers stay in the current page’s memory and reset when you leave or reload. They are not saved to browser storage. If you accept analytics, events can record a fixed question identifier and whether the answer was correct; we do not send the answer text. Matching the answer key is not an independent assessment of learning.

Optional videos

A YouTube player loads only when you choose “Load YouTube video.” No remote video thumbnail is requested beforehand. Loading connects to YouTube, which can receive your IP address and browser information; its policies apply independently of this site’s analytics preference. Closing removes the player but does not undo information already sent. All explanations can be read without playing a video.

Maps and external requests

The location map requests data from its configured map providers even if optional analytics is declined. Providers can receive your IP address and browser request information. We do not request your device location. Temple details may embed Google Maps. Provider privacy policies apply.

External links & advertising

Opening official Templestay, eBay, source references or map links takes you to another provider. Their policies apply. Advertising consent remains separate from analytics; an analytics choice does not authorize personalized ads.
