11/8 DongLingSi the 2nd

December 13, 2015

This is the second temple from Donglingsi, the temple visited prior day.   The Donglingsi temple 1 was under lots of construction however that temple is located up in the mountains.  Donglingsi temple 2 is the new sister temple that's around a half hour plus drive away but closer to the populace.

Do you know who Ashoka was?  Just in case you don't, his Indian empire around 250 BC stretched from Bangladesh through most of subcontinent of India and reaching through Afghanistan and Central Asia.   He is credited for spreading Buddhism throughout his realm and beyond.  The Ashoka pillar was in many of the photos earlier.
