Was lucky to be in the huge Buddhist temple, Chion-In, in Kyoto when one of the monks was chanting. Don't know enough about Buddhism to say if he was praying, or reciting, or asking for good fortune or what... but it was very very beautiful, so I clicked my camera to record and that's what on the backing track for this walk through of the temple. The centre was founded in the 1200's... the main building dates from the 1600's.. the formal garden from the same time... it's just amazing...
