  1. This place will be ruined soon enough. It used to be a religious destination strictly for the devoted. Now Western (and Chinese) tourists will list it as one of their "must sees" so they can share it on Facebook to impress their friends. (Lots of selfies, to be sure.) There is no respect, as indicated by the backwards baseball cap.
