Byodo-In Temple

After Ella's dentist appointment we drove over the mountains to the Valley of the Temples Memorial Park. Byodo-In Temple is a scale replica of a 900-year-old Japanese temple and is built entirely without nails. The golden Buddha in the temple is thought to be the largest figure carved since ancient times and it's more than 18 feet high. It made us miss Korea and all the beautiful temples; even wishing we could go back and let Ella explore a different culture.
