Hsi Lai Temple

I didn't have enough to spend there, but I'll definitely go back and take my time. Very serene and zen atmosphere and vib.So much to see and explore and so be done at a cool pace and not rushed.There is a library where you can check out books or read there. Quiet. Relaxing reading rooms. Very very nice staff. Amazing. There are some free books you can take.There's a tea room and gift shop. 2 temples, a really good art gallery that has new Exhibits that rotates out.I didn't have time to stay for the vegetarian buffet but the red bean and custard cakes I got that is made fresh on the spot there was really yummy! If you get there earlier enough, there is plenty of free parking on site.

Beautiful temple with a lot of culture and respectful people. A place you should atleast visit once. ?
