Monastery of Ten Thousand Buddhas, Biara Dengan 13.000 Patung Buddha
Terletak Tinggi di atas Bukit yang subur di Kota teretorial baru dari Sha Tin, Hong Kong adalah Biara Sepuluh Ribu Buddha. Ini bukan sebuah Biara yang sebenarnya karena tidak ada Bhikkhu yang mendiaminya, Biara ini dipenuhi dengan lebih dari 13.000 patung Buddha dari segala bentuk dan ukuran. Untuk mencapai Biara pertama harus menaiki lebih dari 400 anak tangga sampai Lereng Bukit, jalan berjajar dengan patung Buddha segala kehidupan.
"Di seluruh jalan menuju puncak Biara dipenuhi patung Buddha, patung Buddha yang berbeda dari yang kulihat di sebuah Kuil sebelumnya," tulis blogger Andy Carvin. "Bahkan, masing-masing patung mempunyai keunikan tersendiri. Ada Buddha langsing, Buddha gemuk, Buddha tanpa rambut, Buddha berambut , Buddha dengan tongkat, Buddha dengan Naga, dll.”
Dan ketika Anda berada di dalam Biara Anda akan melihat begitu banyak Buddha, yang ada di taman, di menara, serta di dinding Kuil di pajang ribuan miniatur Buddha yang seakan mengelilingi ruang Biara.

He planned to establish a Buddhist college when he accepted an estate from a pious Buddhist who was also a rich merchant. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery was constructed at the beginning of 1949. Despite his old age, Yuet Kai carried the buildings materials personally from the foot of the mountain together with his disciples to build the monastery. It took eight years to complete all the buildings and another ten years to finish the 12,800 Buddha statues. construction was finished in 1957.
