This picture shows an ornate old temple gate with elaborate stone decorations and a calm water basin in the foreground. The red ornamentation and Chinese influences are typical of Vietnamese temple architecture and are artfully reflected on the surface of the water. The gate with its circular view not only serves as an entrance, but also as a symbolic element between the spiritual world and everyday life. The planting and the traditional roof round off the harmonious ensemble. This motif appeals to lovers of Asian history, meditation and architectural details and is an expression of Vietnamese culture and temple culture. As a mural, it brings elegance, tranquillity and enigmatic beauty to any living room, study or meditation room and inspires Far Eastern serenity and profound contemplation of architecture.
