Description
Jiming Buddhist Temple in Nanjing, China, covered in snow. The earliest temple stems from 557 and was destroyed and rebuilt many times throughout its history. The original current incarnation of the temple was constructed during the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Hongwu in 1387.
In the background, on the righthand side, the 450-metre high Zifeng Tower or Nanjing Greenland Financial Tower, is under construction.
