Happy Birthday Buddha!
The Kim's took me to a "famous" local buddhist temple the other night for buddha's birthday celebration. We got there late so missed most of the part but we did get to walk around and see the grounds decked out. It was a beautiful and peaceful sight.
this temple had many old stone carved buddhas
a buddha in a box. there was a reason and story about this but i can't fully recall
there were also many pagodas through out the ground. rumor is that there used to be over 1000 buddhas and pagodas.
this was a very special pagoda as it has rounded towers instead of rectangular.
the lanterns lead the way to the buddha. I wish I could have captured fully how beautiful and colorful this all was.
