Compound Gate, Tiantong Temple, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China


Gateway to a compound at historic Tiantong Temple in the mountains outside of Ningbo, Zhejiang. This was the seat of the great Caodong Chan monk Rujing (1163–1228); Dogen Zenji (1200-1253) studied with him from 1225 to 1227 and later founded Soto Zen in Japan (Japanese "Soto" is from Chinese "Caodong").
