The simple life of monks at China's famed Shaolin Temple got an upgrade with the installation of luxury toilets costing more than �200,000.
Established about 1,500 years ago, the temple, in central China's Henan province, is famous for combining martial arts with Buddhism and is a popular tourist attraction.
The most lavish of the new facilities measures more than 1,500 square feet and is equipped with a nappy changing station and a foyer with an LCD television.

You have offended my family, and you have offended a Shaolin temple.
