White Horse, Baima Temple, Luoyang, Henan

The "white" horse in front of Baima Temple in Luoyang, Henan, represents one of those who gave the temple its name: baima is Chinese for "White Horse." It is said that this was the lodging for the first two official missionaries from India (who rode white horses); it would thus be China's oldest temple.
