I went to FGS Dong Zen yesterday after work just to satisfy my hunger to take photographs...
I choose yesterday because I believe that there won't be too many people there, yet, the turnout is still more than I expected. Luck is on my side though as I managed to get a few nice shots that I really like and some of the standard photos of the main attraction.
I even learn more about Buddhism... Yes, I learned more about the 4 main pilgrimage sites for Buddhist, Lumbini, Bodhgaya, Sarnath and Kushinagar. While I already know about Lumbini, I was quite ignorant about the other three, even though I believe that my Kalyana Mitra already know it and mentioned to me tonnes of times before...
Here are the four site with a brief intro if you don't know yet
Lumbini - The place where Siddhartha Gautama was borned.
Bodhgaya - The place where Gautama Buddha gain Enlightenment.
Sarnath - The place where Gautama Buddha first taught the Dhamma.
Kushinagar - The place where Gautama Buddha entered Parinirvana.
(Kalyana mitras, correct me if I am wrong...)
The other attraction for this year would be the Giant Lantern with a beautiful garden of flowers...
Here are some of the pictures taken from my visits to FGS Dong Zen this Chinese New Year:
