A monk, a bell, a drum Jonathan Shaw

Submitted by: Jonathan Shaw

Situated at the foot of Fenghuang (Phoenix) Mountain in Dongkeng Village, Putuo Temple is one of Zhuhai’s most ornate and serene temples. A series of wide courtyards offer a place for quiet contemplation. As monks gather to offer prayers, the silence is broken by the sounds of bells and drums.
