I took this photo at the DMZ in Korea. This bell sits atop a hill that is on the southern line of the 2 mile wide DMZ. It is also near the 4th infiltration tunnel that was discovered in 1991. The North Koreans had been digging these tunnels to invade the South for many years.

Bells like this are very popular in Korea. Every Buddhist temple I have been to has a bell similar to this. As we were driving down the hill from the DMZ observatory I saw this scene adn jumped out to capture it.
