The Shaolin Flying Monks Temple Blasts Monks Into the Sky Above a Mountainside Amphitheater



Quote:
The recently completed Shaolin Flying Monks Temple contains a one-of-a-kind levitation pavilion that houses a vertical wind tunnel designed in part by Aerodium that blasts participants toward the sky in the center of a 230-seat amphitheater.

“The concept is to tell the history of Zen and Kung-Fu through artistic performances and architectural image of the building itself,” says Mailītis. “It serves as a metaphor for mountain and trees and was inspired by Songshan mountain – the natural environment for monks to develop their skills.”

I miss pretty architecture. With curvy slopes and pretty accoutremountes, arches and columns that didn't look like rundown freeways. I guess those would be nicer with colors other than gray and black... So depressing and drab.

As long as modern architecture is in the hands of Freemasons, there's no hope.
