Himalayan temple restorer scales new heights
Architect Xia Yujun works at crossroads of modern engineering, history and religious culture, Yang Feiyue reports.
Xia Yujun still remembers the first time he laid eyes on the Jebum-gang Lha-khang temple in 2016.
"Pushing open the heavy door, one was greeted by a primitive and rustic atmosphere. The dimness inside the hall added a touch of mystery to the architecture itself," the man in his 30s recalls.
"It has a history of approximately 200 years and has murals from the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911)," he adds.
