Wang Fat Ching She

Wang Fat Ching She, Buddhist temple in Hong Kong.

Wang Fat Ching She, also called Tung Lin Kok Yuen Wang Fat Ching She, is a Buddhist monastery at 8 Fat Yip Lane, off Castle Peak Road at the 9.5-mile mark in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. It was built in 1939 as a retreat for Wong Pik Ngo, third wife of Wong Kit Wan, and was later given to Tung Lin Kok Yuen, which still runs it. Its rooms have served as classrooms, a Buddhist studies centre and, since 2008, a base for online Buddhist broadcasting.

Wang Fat Ching She was built in 1939 by Wong Kit-wan as a retreat for his third wife, Wong Pik-ngo, who later moved to the United States and donated the site to Tung Lin Kok Yuen. After the Second World War, Venerable Tanxu ran the South China Buddhist Study Institute there, training monks including Changhuai and Yongseng. From 1967 to 1997 the premises housed Buddhist schools, and from 1998 to 2004 it was rented to Taiwan's Fo Guang Shan.

The monastery's online radio station, CHANNEL B, records in a studio inside the building; its programmes are hosted both by monks and by presenters in their twenties, covering topics from sutra recitation to music and interviews. The name Wang Fat Ching She means "Dharma-spreading hermitage", and the site is run by Tung Lin Kok Yuen.

Wang Fat Ching She stands at 8 Fat Yip Lane, off Castle Peak Road at the 9.5-mile mark in Tsuen Wan. Since 2008 the site has served as the base of the Buddhistdoor website, and the CHANNEL B studio inside produces programmes hosted by monks and by presenters in their twenties. Check the temple's own website for visiting arrangements.

In 2008 Tung Lin Kok Yuen took the site back to base the Buddhist website Fomen Wang and its internet radio Channel B there; the studio sits inside the Ching She, with programmes hosted by monks and by post-1990s presenters.
