    WOW! I love the first photograph where you have the contrast of the temple against the city skyline in the distance. A great shot that reminds us of what is and what once was. Again, the colours and designs are so beautiful. The greens, reds and blues are so vibrant and clean.

    After my two trips to India, I’m here after a long time to catch up on your posts. These lovely pictures of a beautiful temple certainly seems to be an icon of Beijing.

    Second interesting temple! Its real Heaven.

    Hey this is not done; it’s just a temple and you are tired :( You still need to go to “Great Wall Of China” yet :D

    BTW I am waiting for updates for “Closing Ceremony of Olympics” :) Did you attend it? Looks like I missed you on TV ;) Are you going to go to Paralympics? It’s from September 6–17, 2008. Hope you would gives up updates on that as well :D
