Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, Xuankong Temple in Hunyuan.

Shanxi Trip: Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, Xuankong Temple || The weather was nice and cool. The Yingxian Wooden Pagoda is a true wonder, but it has been leaning for decades. This is because a leader in the 1980s decided to replace the wooden walls on each floor with wooden lattice windows, which caused the pagoda to lean due to different wind pressures. I also thought of some recent renovations that have turned beauty into ugliness and destroyed the real to create the fake. I hope the leaders who don't know what they're doing will leave our few remaining historical treasures alone. When I arrived at Xuankong Temple, the sky was full of auspicious clouds. I climbed the steps along the cliff and couldn't help but admire the wisdom and perseverance of the ancients.
