Just as I can’t resist taking pictures of the guardian lions at temples, I also can’t resist taking pictures of the censers. This one was taken looking through the censer in toward the temple and the ceiling. I like the large sticks of incense one often finds in the middle. I’m not sure how much more they cost than the smaller sticks. In fact, I don’t really know how the incense gets paid for at these temples. In most temples I’ve visited, the incense is simply sitting out in large containers and people can simply take some. I assume the incense gets paid for at some point and in some way, but I don’t know how that works.
