This is the holy palace for Buddhism in Tibet.

When Buddhism spread to north from the originating place ( which is today Nepal ). It have evolved to become a east mid-west religion culture.

Due to the strategic location of Tibet, which is considered at the far west of Middle Kingdom, the Buddhism become the most infleuncial in the culture.

Yet Tibetian buddhism is still have great mix of the ancestors' worship of their tradition.

Autumn is Always full of Colors.

There are lots of beautiful poems written during the old days about Autumn & falling Leaves.

This is a very beatiful Mandarin Love song, about Maple Love!!

枫 叶 情


一 年 容 易 又 秋 天
又 见 到 枫 叶 一 片 片
看 你 那 红 红 的 笑 脸
又 比 枫 叶 还 更 娇 艳
叫 我 对 你 又 爱 又 恋
我 们 常 在 风 里 留 恋 留 恋
爱 在 你 我 心 里 缠 绵 缠 绵
一 片 枫 叶 一 片 情
片 片 都 有 爱 和 恋
朝 朝 暮 暮 直 到 永 远!!

我 爱 美 丽 的 秋 天
我 更 爱 枫 叶 一 片 片
又 在 片 片 的 枫 叶 上
写 下 我 俩 地 心 愿
但 愿 俩 情 永 远 不 变
你 在 给 我 柔 情 万 千 万 千
我 在 给 你 爱 意 无 限 无 限
一 片 枫 叶 一 片 情
愿 你 长 期 在 心 田
岁 岁 年 年 天 上 人 间!!
