itinerary on the tour. But amazed at the size of the temple. Includes a school on permise. If you like buddhas, aplenty all over with interesting poses.

Nice and spacious temple with an orphanage, some food stalls, and a vegetarian restaurant within the premise. Clean and bright place to roam around looking at the statues while the buddhist can take some time to pray. Donations are optional.

i wish to clarify my statement about the "no striking feature". Most temples have either a striking dome and some kind of stupas that immediately associate the building to being a temple.

I recently visited this Temple. It was enormous and beautiful. My family and I were able to roam the temple at our leisure. There are 3 main worship rooms with very large Buddha statues.

The temple is huge, and only about 15 years old. It's clean and well-kept, with very friendly guides. The guide we ran into was excited to practice his English so he happily answered all of our questions and told us some of the history behind some of the statutes. It was free to walk through, and you can explore upstairs... More

Very bid Buddhist temple with 3 halls housing different buddhas and Bodhisattvas. The place is clean and new and not too crowded with tourist. Most of the tours bring you to Tai Bak Gong temple but the tour we joined this time brought us here which was something different.
