(March 23, 2016 a Holy Wednesday)

For a moment, I felt like entering into a Chinatown as I walked my way into a street leading to the parking space of the temple.  There were some small traditional Chinese gateway arches called Paifang or also known as Pailou.

Dragons adorns most of the roofs and some walls.

After climbing the stairs into a main Paifang leading to the grounds of the temple, I sat down and started sketching with the Paifang as my subject.

There were children training martial arts at the nearby grounds.

Tourists started to arrive and I noticed most of them especially the women do not want to go up and climb the stairs into the gardens above anymore, they get tired easily.

After I've finished my sketch, I went exploring more of the area.

Here were some notices posted along the gates:
