The Tenryuji temple bell can be rung... |

- by visitors, although there is a... |

- warning to wait two minutes between... |

- ringing the bell, as repetitive ringing... |

- is a warning for fire, apparently... |

- or maybe it's just an excuse to stop... |

- people from ringing the bell nonstop... |

- as everyone wants a turn at ringing... |

- the bell, mostly putting as much force... |

- into their try as they can |
