The sun bore down on us that day as we made the ascent to the large Buddha on the hill. We had stupidly chosen one of the hottest days of the week to go and visit the cultural monument. At the bottom of the hill we passed Zhong Hua's cultural center, an inviting haven that would surely provide us with some cool air and a chance to fill up our water bottles. After spending several hours perusing magazines, we continued our expedition. Past children playing in the fountain and an elderly couple dipping their cracked and tired feet into the cool stream, we made our way to the top. It would be one of our last outings together. Despite the heat and fatigue, we thoroughly enjoyed the day. Here are some pictures from our voyage.
