This hillside monastery is Sha Tin's main tourist attraction
Despite its name, this monastery is actually home to over 13,000 Buddhas, making it one of Sha Tin's top attractions. Built into the hillside in the 1950s, it comprises four buildings dedicated to various Buddhist deities. The main hall, a true masterpiece, impresses with its thousands of niches housing gilded statues, each unique. To reach it, climb the 431-step staircase, dotted with Buddha figures.

L’ascension vers le monastère est bordée de nombreuses statues dont certaines très originales, il offre aussi une vue dégagée sur la ville.

Accessible depuis la station de métro Sha Tin, il vous faut longer le terrain de football et tourner à gauche. Ensuite il y a un fléchage. La montée à pied vers le monastère vaut le détour: ce chemin est bordé de chaque cotée par des statues dorées. Ensuite, il y a 2 paliers. Au premier un grand bâtiment comporte des milliers de petites statues de bouddha. Le second niveau permet également d'avoir un panorama plus important.
