kaohsiung fo guang shan, kaohsiung

When the gate is more majestic than your entire house.

Standing before the grand entrance of the Fo Guang Shan Buddha Memorial Center, you can't help but marvel at the sheer scale and intricate details of the structure. The ornate gate, with its traditional Chinese architectural elements, seems to challenge the overcast sky, standing tall and proud in its symmetrical perfection. The stone steps leading up to the entrance invite you to ascend, but let's be honest, who has the energy to climb to enlightenment? The stone lions on either side of the gate look like they're judging your life choices, but hey, at least they're doing it with style. The lush greenery around the plaza tries its best to soften the rigid lines of human creation, but let's be real, the trees are losing that battle. In the grand chessboard of life, this place is definitely a checkmate.
