Buddhist Temple

Fodor's Review:

You don't have to be a Buddhist to appreciate the intricate workmanship of traditional Chinese art and culture inside this magnificent Buddhist temple, the most exquisite example of Chinese palatial architecture in North America. Amid the peace and tranquility, the temple holds regular Buddhist ceremonies, lectures, and meditation classes, and conducts tea ceremonies. There is also a renowned bonsai garden, resource library, and museum on the grounds. Because of the sacred nature of the temple, photography is restricted to outside areas.
