Jade Buddha Temple

There was a fish pond in the garden of the temple. In order to take pictures of the fish you had to buy food for the fish. These were some very hungry fish...
A view of one of the temples from the outside. Take note of the modern building in the back ground.
This is one of the many Buddhas in the temples. They all have plates of fruit in front of them. Different Buddhas mean different things, wealth, good health, etc.
This was a sign above the stairs. The Chinese people had no problem.
These two look like they are happily married. One of the best parts of the temple was the tea room. They gave you different samples of the various teas and each one had different health benefits.

Evidently not too many people want to take pictures of those fish..some of them look like they are smiling.

We had koi when we lived in Middleton. The more you feed them the bigger they get, They live forever too unless they freeze to death like ours did,
I know very little about Buhdism, but can over a billion people be wrong in their beliefs?
