When I was there a few years ago, it is forbidden to take pictures
inside the temple. They (the priests/monks) were also very strict
about how you sit while inside -- for example, if the sole of your
foot is facing the Buddha, they'll hit you with a stick to tell
you to change positions. I took a picture from outside the front
entrance, but hand-holding a long zoom in dim light did not give
the best results.
