    Miu Fat Monastery

    Miu Fat Monastery in Lam Tei, due north of Tuen Mun town centre, is one of the best kept and most attractive Buddhist complexes in the territory. Guarding the entrance to the main temple are two stone lions and two stone elephants, and there are attractive gardens outside.

    On the ground floor there’s a golden likeness of Buddha in a glass case; on the 2nd floor are three larger statues of Lord Gautama. Don’t miss the soaring new extension, a 42m tower with a top storey resembling a huge crystal lotus blossom that glows at night.

    This is an active monastery that preserves more of a traditional character than many smaller temples; you’ll see Buddhist nuns in droves…
