White Stupa with Prayer Wheels in Xian Candlelit Nave

by Brenda Kramer

Whitewashed plaster defines the curved dome of a stupa centered in a symmetrical composition. Rows of cylindrical prayer wheels encircle the base, their metallic surfaces catching the glow of flickering candles and overhead neon signs. The nave walls reflect the mixed light, casting soft shadows against the stone floor. Condensation beads along the nearby glass panels, distorting the view of the exterior twilight. The white texture of the stupa contrasts with the warm candlelight and cool neon reflections. A small prayer flag hangs from the upper rim, its edge frayed and still.
