Platter of meat for the hot pot.

The side with the darker liquid is very spicy!

California needs more hot pot restaurants.

Entrance to the Puning (Big Buddha) Temple.
|
It houeses an enormous wooden Buddha with "1000 arms & eyes".
|
An alternate name is "The Temple of Universal Tranquility".

The fabric swatches are offerings.
|
The lay out is a "mandala", with structures....
|
...representing different parts of the universe.
|
The air was heavy with incense.

Lots of prayer wheels below the Buddha of 1000 arms.
|
And, as everywhere, lots of stairs.
