Library at Guiyuan Temple, Wuhan, Hubei


The imposing Library at Guiyuan ("Paying Back") Temple, Wuhan, Hubei. The temple was founded when two monks (actual brothers) asked the local people to help them gather and bury the remains of dead warriors after a great battle between Ming and Qing forces. The hut where they said the prayers for the dead became Guiyuan Temple.
