Ian's photos 28

This is another view of the entrance to the main hall. Usually the doors are shut so you can hardly see inside. There was no one there at the time so Ian and I stood in front of the brown donation box to do our chanting.

These were old shrines that had been outdoors somewhere and then moved in under the roof of a small building. They apparently all still had statues inside and some people stop to pray or chant in front of them. We just looked and then took pictures.
This was a statue of someone in meditation. I am sure that the person was important in some way and that the red coloring is representative of some aspect of Buddhism.
The temple grounds were quite nice, spacious and well groomed.
