Tu Hieu - Hue, Vietnam

In a few weeks, I will return Tu Hieu Pagoda in Hue, Vietnam. The last two times I visited Tu Hieu I was traveling with Thay and the Sangha. Tu Hieu is a beautiful pagoda with gardens and ponds and and buildings that make me feel I'm in a different time.  When I was 19 and traveled to  Vietnam for the first time, Tu Hieu would have seemed so strange and foreign – very different than the small Northeastern Ohio town I grew up in. It monochrome, this is a timeless photo (if you ignore the digital cameras).
