high angle view of stone fountain with flowing streams in the Korean Buddhist temple

Stone fountain in a Korean Buddhist temple features a sculpted turtle, with water streaming from its mouth into a shallow basin. The turtle, a symbol of longevity and protection in Korean culture, is intricately carved from stone. Surrounding the fountain, metal bowls rest on the edge, likely used for ritual cleansing. The water appears clear and reflective under sunlight, highlighting the texture of the stone and creating small ripples in the basin. A person in casual attire is partially visible to the left.
