Miu Fat Buddhist Monastery, Buddhist temple in Tuen Mun District, Hong Kong

Miu Fat Buddhist Monastery is a Buddhist temple in Tuen Mun District featuring a three-story main hall with red-brick columns and golden dragon sculptures at its entrance. The complex includes multiple buildings with different spaces dedicated to Buddhist practice and worship.

The monastery was founded in 1960, when the monks Sik Sim and Kam Shan bought Cheung Yuen, a residence in Lam Tei. The three-storey Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall was rebuilt from 1973 and consecrated in May 1980 at a cost of $60 million. Work on the adjoining seven-storey, 45-metre main complex began on 2 February 1999 and was completed in mid-March 2010.

The walls display thousands of Buddha reliefs, blending elements from Chinese and Thai Buddhist traditions. This fusion appears in how the space is decorated and how visitors experience the different parts.

The monastery is accessible by Light Rail Transit at Lam Tei station or via bus routes 53, 63X, and 68A. Visitors should wear appropriate clothing and walk respectfully through the spaces, especially during prayer times.

The monastery's 45-metre, seven-storey complex, completed in 2010, has a top-floor Lotus Shrine whose glass form resembles a giant crystal lotus when seen from afar. Its lookout overlooks the Tuen Mun rural landscape. The complex also houses a library, a 1,000-seat lecture hall and a glass Buddha hall.
