The Linggu Pagoda, being an addition to the Buddhist temple complex, was built in the late of 1920s as a memorial for the soldiers who had died in the national revolution.
Inside the pagoda a spiral staircase of 252 steps winds to the top through the nine stories.

@Manuela Photography: thanks. i actually deliberately pushed the door opened a little in order to add somewhat a "mysterious" effect on the picture taken. i hope i succeed in some way or another.

Simply beautiful Patrick - colour, tone and composition are excellent! cheers Bron

@Bron: cool. thanks for compliments. i think the darkness inside the door gave somewhat additional composition to the whole picture.
Great shot!!!
