Fodor's Review:

You'll be able to say you saw New York's largest Buddha here at the largest Buddhist temple in Chinatown; it's at the foot of the Manhattan Bridge Arch on the Bowery. A donation of $2 is requested. There's a great gift shop on the second floor. Before its incarnation as a place of worship in 1996, this was the Rosemary, an adult-movie theater.
