Discovering Wuxi

On Friday, my cousin Chelsea and I explored a smaller city (only 5 million people as opposed to Shanghai's whopping 18.5 million) outside of Shanghai called Wuxi. We took a boat over to a beautiful island had fun exploring for the afternoon. We were thrilled when we stumbled upon this:
The Matchmaker God Temple. We both could really use the help=)

Then, we wandered over to the large pagoda (temple) in the middle of the island. We thought it was just another temple.

Until we saw this:
The largest indoor Buddha in the world! Can you see me in the corner of the picture?
