lon wa temple印象
-
A serene place to contemplate. A well organized and well maintained area where caretakers managed to handle the visitors and let them feel the place as a place of worship and for the tourist as well.

It's a Buddhist temple. You can pray. It's nice and quite. Good for have a break and do some meditation

My first visit was back in 2012. It was fun because there were a lot of people who are curious to do what the Chinese people are doing in the temple. There's a person who will assist you on how they are doing their rituals, how to make a wish, etc.On my second visit, it did not feel like a temple anymore. It felt like I was trespassing in an ancestral house but it is still open to everyone. They don't have entrance fee and you can donate any amount to them.

A temple visit is the least u expect to do in Davao, a place of know for nature and its colorful native culture. Lon Wa Temple lets guest have a glimpse of the city's diversity. It's not as grand as those in Bangkok but it has its own charm.

This is a nice place to visit if you never been to a Buddhist temple. I am not a Buddhist but wanted to see what a Buddhist temple looked like. There is no charge to get inside. They just ask for a donation. Our tour guide was the security guard. He showed us the different areas of the temple and was very happy to take pictures of us if we asked. I would definitely recommend this place if in Davao City.

Nothing to do here except gaze at the Buddha in the front shrine, or (my favorite) Avolakiteshvara in the back, and meditate. That's enough.

if you've been to a Buddhist temple in cebu or anywhere in asia you will not going to appreciate it, well in terms of scenery.

I have now shown two separate sets of friends around this well-maintained temple tastefully built in the 1960s.I find a warm welcome at the temple. The caretakers trust visitors to wander around the precincts of the temple in silence, to reflect and contemplate. This makes it a very genuine experience. There is no admission fee, but contributions are welcome. There is an area where Bhuddist artefacts can be bought, but there is no hard-sell at all. The staff are happy to answer questions on the temple's history, giving a very genuine glimpse into Bhuddism in this part of Mindanao. I would suggest that visitors should be willing to respect the serenity of the place with quiet, sober behaviour. It's probably not a good place to bring young children.

Before stepping into the property. Stand just outside the gate and stay long enough to catch the scent of the yellow fire tree. Its a rare and delightful breath of flowers in hot and humid Davao. Just inside the driveway, visitors are welcomed by the sitting Buddha with a big smile. Its a very promising start to a visit. Move on after to the stairway guarded by two lions standing guard. Then enter the temple which is quiet and serene. Take a few minutes to just take it all in feel the stillness. After this temple, move to the back where the Goddess of Mercy with the thousand arms makes you feel like she is always on hand to receive petitions. On the wall in front of this are the 8 carved panels depicting highlights in the life of Buddha. Strictly no picture-taking in the temple to preserve the serenity of the place.

One of the very few Chinese Temples in Davao City but it is the largest I guess. Very accessible even by public transportation.
