"Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple" in Dali, Yunnan, China. Surrounded by the mountains of Yunnan, the mysterious atmosphere is striking!

The Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple are about a 20-minute walk from Dali Ancient Town. I often saw them in photos and on TV as a symbol of Yunnan Province, but the real thing was mystical with its tranquil atmosphere and the mountains of Yunnan in the background. It's hard to tell from below, but they're arranged in an equilateral triangle. The towers are 69.5m tall and made of bricks. I wonder how they were built. The main hall of Chongsheng Temple is huge and reminds me of the Forbidden City in Beijing. Finally, I looked for a spot where it would be reflected on the water, but only two towers were reflected...it was mystical from any angle.
