24 Filial Piety Relief, Beijing, China - 1st February 2015
By: goomymia
Hey mum,
We're still at Badachu Park. This time I saw very vivid relief, kind of sculpture, fantastic art! They describe the 24 filial piety stories which are part of traditional culture in China. Some of the stories are really impressive. I love you mum.
Yours

the hall of god of wealth, Beijing, China - 1st February 2015
By: goomymia
Hey mum,
I was in front of the hall of god of wealth in the first picture, a lady was praying inside. We were just going to leave. GiGi told us she saw a fish tail upon the red wall. All of us were very curious to take a look at it, after we passed through a gate, we saw a giant stone creature coiled around a tree, a really unique creature I'm sure I hadn't seen it before. Dolly said it is a Chinese dragon. Wow it looks so different from the dragon I know. It looks more like a big head snake with claws, moreover it also has a fish tail. How strange...
Love

family hall for worshipping Buddha, Beijing, China - 1st February 2015
By: goomymia
Now we arrived at a family hall for worshipping Buddha.
The sign on the wall indicates that we can't go inside without invitation.
Never mind, here we got many ice-sugar gourds.
They are a kind of snack made of fruits like hawthorns, sometimes even strawberries.

Hey mum,
I'm on my way to the top of the mountain.
The Relic Stupa is just turning to be a little wee thing behind us.
You see these goats, they are everywhere around the park.

Here we come to the Great Mercy Temple of Badachu Park.
That is a sculpture of one of the god, he is holding a pipa but still a bit scary.

On the way down the hill we saw a beautiful sculpture of another god.
And a big Chinese character 'Fu' which means blessing.

I also found this little thing, he is really small and a little bit shy.
Mia told me her mum is a big turtle fan and a voyager Slowly-Slowly is coming from Holand.
I can't wait to meet him!
