At the Mount Tai scenic area in Tai'an, Shandong province, autumn rain patters softly upon Daimiao Temple. It is as if raindrops were pixies gently tapping on every brick, tile, blade of grass, and tree. The stone path glistens, and raindrops dance on puddles. The eaves of the temple are adorned with sparkling drops, resembling strands of pearl swaying in the breeze.
Listen to the rain plucking at nature's strings – sometimes gently, sometimes with gusto; the melody carries an indescribable tranquility and poeticism.
