Cham Shan Temple Visit


This week I spend some time at the Cham Shan Temple with my World Religions class. We've been enjoying studying Buddhism and had a great time walking around this beautiful temple. I've passed it so many times on the bus and always wondered what it looked like inside. 

The most interesting part of the tour are the sculptures. They have wonderful monuments to the various representations of Buddha throughout the buildings. 

This one is the Buddha of 1000 arms, a Bodhisattva of compassion (Avalokitesvara).
