This is the entrance to the Yu Fosi, or Jade Buddah Temple in Shanghai. It is a functioning Buddist temple replete with yellow-clad monks and giant statues of various Buddist dieties. Most of the other people there were praying and burning incence for their ancestors so we didn't get too many pictures as we felt it would have been a bit disrespectful. The Jade Buddah itself is very beautiful but they don't allow photography in the chamber where it's located. I've posted a few snapshots from around the temple.
