Wenshu Monastery... by day

A few weeks ago one of our local staff treated us to a vegetarian dinner and tea tasting down in Wenshu near the monastery.  We had such a great time that we decided to go in the daylight to see it all. 

There was no entrance fee to get into the area but it is an active monastery for practicing Buddhists so if you go be respectful.  Be quiet and don't take pictures in the temples. 

We got to witness one of their ceremonies today.  Obviously it was all in Chinese but basically they went from one area to another saying their prayers I guess and burning incense in the different areas that have shrines set up for different buddhas.
