Hsin Tian Kong

Taipei

The pronunciation of 'Kong' in Chinese as the same meaning as temple http://www.ht.org.tw/htkeng.htm
The three words of 'Hsin Tian Kong' were written horizontally from right to left.

Chinese characters can be can be written horizontally or vertically, both horizontal and vertical writing are used in Taiwan,
we started in horizonal writing from right to left and suddenly changed from left to right during my primary-school-age.

I was standing close to the wall and still could not capture the panoramic building.

Canon PowerShot S30
1/200s f/2.8 at 7.1mm full exif
