Chi Lin Nunnery

Chi Lin Nunnery

Established in 1934 and renovated in Tang dynasty style (AD 618–907) in 1990, the Chi Lin Nunnery is a large temple complex of elegant wooden architecture, treasured Buddhist relics and soul-soothing lotus ponds. The complex also includes a series of temple halls, some of which contain gold, clay and wooden statues representing divinities such as the Sakyamuni Buddha and bodhisattvas. ©http://www.discoverhongkong.com

WARNING: Lots of photos ahead.

I went to Chi Lin Nunnery by bus#116 from the Mahjong Hostel. Alight on Chut Tok School and go down to the Park. It's a 3min walk to Chi Lin Nunnery.

It's a peaceful place.
