Beijing Opera & Lama temple...

Hey...

How are you.. hehe?

Well, today I went to the Lama temple and the beijing opera.

I remembered so many things about 3 years ago!!! wow.. hehe

This time I didn't fall asleep in the opera hehe. I enjoyed it all and I was able to understand some parts!!! hahaha I feel happy about it hehe.

Nevertheless after seen it on TV so many times, I have to admit that I'm a bit used to it hehe. At least we didn't pay the whole ticket and everything went fine.. =)

There were many acrobatics in the show, I don't recall have seen so many action in the ones I watched previously, It could be because they were different operas or maybe because they want this one to be more atractive for foreigners hehe.. The place was packed with us hehe not locals at all haha.

By midday, me and company!!! haha Fangfang and my roomie, Giselle went to Gonghegong, lama temple... It is quite big! It used to be a palace but changed later to the tibetan lama culture place in Beijing.

There are many signs all in different languages: Manchurian, Tibetan, Han and...

They gave us discount!! haha good, student card 50% =)

And the entrance ticket is a nice souvenir, a small VCD that you can play in your computer, with awesome images for 4.5 minutes hehe and the monks from the temple saying something sorry I didnt understand this.. haha It was in Tibetan!!!

I enjoyed the place again.. Specially the 18 meters tall Buddha, made of a single piece of sandalwood!!! It's fabulous!!! Colosal!!! hehe.. and there are 8 more meters down to make it stable... I wonder when and how they made the buildinghehehe.. maybe they had to make the building afterwards but... wasn't it a palace before??? strange hehe.
