On Saturday I realized that my coffee was running low and had to make a road trip to buy. Yes, my city does not sell fresh coffee (only instant). On Sunday morning I headed to Changzhou, a city of 2 million people, which is an hour drive from my factory city (Danyang).
I decided to take in some sites and visited the Changzhou Tianning Temple. Rather then tell my poor understanding of the temple I suggest you Google it. I do know it has the tallest structure of any budhist temple is South Asia. Sorry in advnce for the poor quality photos. I used my Sony mobile phone. If you have a chance to see the temple in person it really is amazing. It was re-opened 2 weeks ago after undergoing extensive renovation.
Photo DSC00038 and 39 are of a wishing tower. The people seen were trying to throw a coin into one of 3 levels with openings. They say if you can throw your coin in your wish will come true.
Enjoy
