Why Temples only?
The title of this site says, "Photos of Temples, Churches, & Mosques..." but there are photos of Temples only. No curches! No Mosques! Why ???

Hi Can you do me a favor? I'm reading an educational English book,called " New Interchange" in the first book of the series titled as " Intro" , in the student's book , page 15, there is a picture of a 2-storied building which looks like a temple with trees around it, and also a circular tower-like structure by the temple. Can you tell me the name of this place?
