lonny tao Posted October 20, 2011 at 02:19 PM Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 at 02:19 PM A long time ago I was in China. I was doing a visit at the Confusius temple. In the garden around it are big stones/tablets with Chinese names on it. The names are from people that study/working there in the past. In the past Chinese people take a piece of paper an with a pencil the copy the names. That is what the travelguy told me. For tourists they also sell papers like that. All with different kind of text on it. I take a piece of paper with me at home because I like Chinese characters. For years now it is hanging on the wall but I am wondering what these characters say. anybody an idea? Lonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonny tao Posted October 21, 2011 at 02:16 PM Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 at 02:16 PM It is a poem, that is nice to know. Some characters, I know what they mean. I already found these characters bij google. But the meaning of the whole poem search bij google that is not easy. Maybe a translation office can help me. But I am already happy that I know that this is a poem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
