Lama Temple

Protected under direct orders from Zhou Enlai during the Cultural Revolution, the Lama Temple once served as the center of Tibetan Buddhism in central China. I really like the precession of the architecture, it was as if each temple served as an opening act for the next one. At the end, there was a statue that held a Guinness World Record for largest piece of statue carved from one piece of wood!
