Day 14 Yonghe Temple, a Vegetarian Restaurant and Tea

 Today some of us visited the largest and best-preserved lamasery in Beijing, the colours, the incense, the atmosphere are all very special and make this a busy yet calm space in Beijing consisting of the Hall of Everlasting Blessings, Hall of the Dharma Wheel and the  Pavilion of Infinite Happiness. To round the day off we also ate at a vegetarian buffet restaurant with tofu meat in all shapes, colours, flavours and textures, everyone was pleasantly surprised until the meat ball in grass juice appeared!
