calmness of mind
A friend of mine recommended to go and visit this place. I am not a practicing buddhist but I am surprised that there is a certain calmness of mind during meditation inside the nunnery. There are also some rock artifacts and plants showcased upon entering where there are philosophy/quotation on it. There is also a nearby park. It is easy to find this place. Must try!

A stately set of sombre looking temples
This is a stately set of temples completely enclosing a central coutyard with four symmetrical lotus ponds. When I visited, quite a lot of lotus flowers with different colors were in bloom. In contrast, all the temples are of a sombre dark brown color. Do not expect to find the golden pagoda and the connecting red bridge that some reviewers wrongly attributed to this temple. They are actually located in Nan Lian Garden.
