Temple

---

I live in a small old city, which is famous for its historical sites.

---

Most tourists like to visit our cultural and historical sites, especially during holidays, hundreds of visitors would flock into the city to see these old eastern-style buildings.

---

These

---

monuments not only serve to educate people about the city and our culture but also act as landmarks, in turn contributing to the economy of my hometown.

---

But for me it is something more than a talking spot or heritage.

---

It is a place

---

full of childhood memories with my grandparents.

---

When I was a kid, my grandparents took me to a temple near their house every morning.

---

It is a brick-red building with a large yard, a pond, and a lot of banyan trees.

---

They like to play tai chi with their friends under the banyan trees, and I would play hide-and-seek with other kids over there.

---

And after their morning event was over, my grandparents and I would sit under the tree shade, eating some ice pops.

---

At that time, it was just a place where local residents could kill time there, and I didn't think it would turn out to be an instagram-worthy place in the future.

---

Nowadays, in order to maintain these important buildings and avoid the risk of damage, it begins to charge visitors for some price and close in the morning.

---

I know it is for the sake of the site, but I still miss the old day I was under the banyan trees with the buzz of cicadas around my ears.

---
