Whilst on holiday on January 1st two friends decided to dress up their sons as miniature monks whilst visiting the Er Fo Temple in Hechuan, Chongqing, seizing the opportunity to take some truly brilliant photos of the pair venturing through the peaceful and tranquil location. Aged 1 and 3 the oldest boy's father, Zhou Lu, was well prepared with his camera at the ready.

After the photos were shared online the two boys quickly became online sensations thanks to their tiny matching outfits featuring traditional garbs and prayer beads, completing the look that's earned the adorable duo the the nickname "cutest young monks.
