  Easily accessible, ...however, one has to be care when travelling westbound on Steveston. Making a left turn into the temple does pose a hazard to the vehicles behind you. Plenty of parking spots. Very peaceful and harmonious setting. The ambience is great for settling one's nerves. The temple also offers meditation classes, and vegetarian meals (select days). One can purchase joss sticks at the entrance for offerings to the deities....$5/- a pac (about 50 sticks of joss). Must visit site in Richmond.

  Nice enough, not a whole lot going on. The vegetarian restaurant closes around 3 pm so missed a chance to try it. Otherwise the grounds seem fine, but nothing outstanding.

  We toured the Temple grounds and found it very quiet andpeaceful. The large grounds and buildings and uniquearchitecture are very interesting to walk around at.This is one of our favorite places to visit whenever we arein the area.

  Whenever someone comes to Vancouver this is a must stop location. They're amazed with the facilities. It is calming and relaxing too. For westerners, it is hard to understand many if the symbols and statues, I wish there were some board with background information that would allow us to understand Buddhism better.

  One of the best Buddhist Temple that I have visited. The 10,000 hands statute was one of the kind. The chanting hall where the Buddha was located was very peaceful.

  Quiet place for a brief relaxing sight seeing, the bonsais , big budda are nice. Picture taking is discouraged. Vegetarian lunch available. No fees required. Stairs, easy for kids, manageable for seniors and physically challenged. Entirety Can be appreciated in half an hour.

  I took an out of town visitor on a sunny Sunday afternoon to see the temple. The grounds and the temple were beautiful. There are many signs asking visitors to be quiet, but the number of people using their cell phones was ridiculous. The loud talking by the people working there was very noticeable. Perhaps the staff could enforce the quiet policy to make this more pleasurable for all visitors.
