Temple Etiquette (see large)

Thx. for comments. Throughout the Buddhist and Muslim worlds, I am always

amazed how shoes are kept very orderly outside of some temples and very

disorderly outside of others.

How does one find ones shoes again? Gives impression of a very homogeneous population?

Yes, this is very surprising - but then again I was not aware of it.  Perhaps it is their devout faith that influences this custom. Good capture Jim. Never seen one like it on PN before!

Remarkable scene!  Each pair looks like a duet singing the stories of their travels; and from their perspective, their world's quite a different place from their owner's...

Jim ,I am a Muslim ,and a visitor for mosques for so many years in my life,and i would like to tell you with certainty that this very nice looking order is not at all without its painful penalty,though very infrequently ,and only for some very unfortunate persons, show theft and shoe exchange .

Regards.
