the cave looks really cool so do the warrior statues
and the budda
i think so too!
What’s a Budda?
Ronan, a Buddha is someone who has become enlightened. Buddhists believe in reincarnation, which means that after you die, you are reborn. If you become a Buddha, it means you no longer are reborn, but are finally at peace.
The Opera looks extremely elaborate.
Is it me, or does Sofia Church look really sort of, Russian?
Bring me a piece of the Great Wall please. Nothing to large. Maybe 1′ x 1′. Perhaps with some ancient writing. If you are worried about Customs, have two Asian swallows carry it. It won’t weigh more than a full coconut.
