International Buddhist Temple
Reflecting the classical architecture of Beijing’s Forbidden City, this beautiful two-tiered temple has the most magnificent Gracious Hall, complete with deep red exterior walls and an orange porcelain roof with the dramatic flairs that make these structures simply amazing to look at.
There is a 100m Buddha mural as well as a multi-armed Bodhisattva to see.
The surrounding landscaped gardens feature pathways to view the sculptures and bonsai trees, with benches to relax and enjoy the peaceful scenery.
You don’t have to be a Buddhist to visit, the monks are extremely welcoming to all those who wish to visit!
The International Buddhist Temple is located at
9160 Steveston Highway in Richmond and you can visit their website at www.buddhisttemple.ca
