The inside of a Buddhist shrine (above) is not unlike a Catholic church. You have an alter with a deity that worshippers pray to, you light incense sticks (instead of candles) and you remember your passed away loved ones. Interestingly, the ashes of the dead are stored on site and pictures of them kept on the walls with messages written to them underneath.
I don't recall ever seeing fruit on an alter at mass though!
