One of the more unusual attractions here in the village of University Heights is the Hsi Fang Buddhist temple. The impressive structure, which includes a bookstore and residences, is located in the San Diego community’s main commercial area.
For no other reason than habit, I typically walk on the East side of Park Blvd. But today that way was blocked, and I was directed across the street, where I stopped to see some of the Temple’s inspirational marketing materials and decor. (I should go by more often.)
I used Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra to capture the Featured Image and companion. The xylophone really works! Vitals: f/1.4, ISO 64, 1/1946 sec, 23mm (film equivalent), 1:14 p.m. PDT. The other: f/2.4, ISO 25, 1/127 sec, 69mm (film equivalent); 1:16 p.m.
