This is magnificent temple with a big platform in front of it, and green pine trees surrounding the platform. The green grass in the summer gives the impression of great cleanliness. I can clearly hear the sound of doves flying up to the roof of the temple. When it cools down, and the light from the west before sunset shines on the pine trees, the crowd begins to thin out. I like that clean moment.
