Looks like the symbol at the start of a line of sheet music. I'm betting it decorates the audience area in front of a stage or band shell.

Yes, Ken, that is what it looks like. Also, the center portion, pointing east to west, looks like a stringed musical instrument. I'd call it a lute, except this is in China.

"The "blue ghost" double image is actually an artifact of the satellite photo and is due to the motion of the two planes. In fact, if you look closely at cars on highways in satellite photos, you will sometimes see these ghost images for those moving objects as well. The distance of the ghosts from the actual objects is an indicator of speed."

Obviously not.
But they have named it as "Lotus Temple" and resemblance of both is obvious.

...and Sir, I am not kidding - just teasing :-)

Why stupid searching? Obviously joseph507357 was busy cleaning up the map. He also searched for other naughty words, look at his deletions:

Yeah it is a way to clean up the map from for example insulting tags, I noticed many users searching for similar things to clean bad places, I advice some of them in the past that better to close their search right window before posting the links in the forum asking for the deletion, just for privacy seek……

But if I once catch my 11 years old son searching for such word, Mmmm Cleaning the map would not be a good excuse & certainly he will not be able to access the internet any more at home, Saying it is related to Women! He will miss his Sony playstation for the entire summer vacation.
but here may be there are some differences in the cultural background among nations. could be wrong though

A big Indian titanium company dumps its wastes in a pit on the inside edge of a beach. You can see that chemicals seep through the sand into the Arabian Sea, staining the ocean water for miles down the coast. How did they ever get ISO 9001 certification for their product doing this?
