A few more to go. Korean totems, posted on outskirts of towns and villages to ward off evil spirits.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us They said Buddha's ashes are buried here. We saw many people come up to this and pray. And to the lower right were incense sticks one could light and leave in a sand-filled tray off-camera, to say a prayer.

I felt uncomfortable taking photos here, though they didn't seem to mind. Off to the left is a Buddhist temple undergoing reconstruction, but very much in operation. Again, I felt uncomfortable taking photos.
