When I came to this Buddhist holy place, I had to praise it for being very solemn. The statues of the gods and goddesses of the Tianlong Babu were lifelike. The trees and flowers here were very neatly arranged. Especially the carp here are not afraid of strangers at all. When your hand approaches, they will open their mouths by themselves. They are very human and not like other fish that are very afraid of people approaching them. Through the guide of the master here, I washed away a lot of dust in my heart and let go of myself and indulged in this Tianlong Babu temple.
