It is said that during the olden times,

Our guide around the Temple, after the Summer Palace, we learnt our lesson,
this kinda money cannot SAVE! besides it has great information of the temple!



The Long Corridor
it is a social spot for all ages,
people singing,
card games,
dancing and kids playing - it was a very bustling corridor! what a JOY!
