The pagoda is very quiet and peaceful, the beautiful scenery is worth a visit. But we need the Public Order Management Board to look into how a photographer's way of luring tourists at the temple gate destroys the majesty of such a sacred place. When guests refused to take pictures, they hurled insults.
