Buddhist Maha Vihara, Theravada Buddhist temple in Brickfields, Malaysia.
The Buddhist Maha Vihara temple complex contains multiple structures for meditation, prayer sessions, and religious ceremonies within its dedicated grounds.
The foundation stone for the temple shrine room was placed in 1894 after the British government granted the land for public service purposes.
The temple offers regular classes and workshops about Buddhist philosophy, while maintaining a library containing texts about Buddhist teachings and practices.

The temple received substantial financial support from Chinese Buddhists during its early establishment, leading to increased participation from diverse ethnic communities.
