Wonderful photo! I am curious, do the pagodas have a special function and if so, what?

You are so very sweet. A pagoda is a tiered tower with multiple eaves. There are a lot of them in Nepal, China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and other parts of Asia. Most pagodas were built to have a religious function, most commonly Buddhist, and were often located in or near temples. However, the word "Pagoda" is a word Westerners made up.

Very interesting! I had a feeling they had some kind of religious function.

I did a photomanipulation with your wonderful photo. Sorry to not asked before but, you're not angry I used your photo ???
I chose your picture because it's very difficult to find wonderful photos that are not retouched.
So I want to know if I can post my manip on DA. Hope it will be yes ^^
Thanks a lot for sharing your pictures, I don't travel so it's very interesting for me to see it = D

Hi Andy
Oh no, not the axe...?! (joke)...
What about creating a gallery just for those pictures...
I did this once with some of my paintings - but then thought, well even if only one or two like something then at least they get the pleasure of that creation...
Appreciate all your work...

California!? Wow...can't believe they have such fantastic examples of chinese architechture outside China! Explains why it looks so new though! Makes me wonder what the rest of Pasadena's like!

Pasadena and some of the surrounding communities have some very affluent Chinese people. There is Chinese architecture everywhere in L.A. In fact, you can find architecture and food and music from all over the world here in L.A.
