Early in the morning I started the hike to the Monastery.  It took about 35 minutes to get there from the bottom of the hill.  like the Treasury, when you just start to wonder how much longer before you get there, it majestically appear in front of your eyes, and the facade is as impressive as the Treasury, if not more.

I am trying to catch my breath after the long hike, but then, the gigantic structure takes it away at once.  All I can do is stand still, payiny my full respect to those built this massive temple long before me.

A cold breeze blows up, sky starts to darken, and come along is drizzle.  The wind blows through grass and trees, then throught the other side of the valley, creats such a wonderful sound that I can't find it anywhere else.  I closed my eyes, just let the cold air clears up my mind and heart.

There are steps built around the rocks and lead to the top of the kiosk.  Umm, how can I missed this opportunity to climb up there?  And indeed, the view from the top is much more spectacular than anything I have ever seen!
