Nan Tien Temple, Buddhist temple in Berkeley, Australia.

Nan Tien Temple is a Buddhist temple in Berkeley, New South Wales, featuring multiple prayer halls, pagodas, and a main shrine. The grounds spread across a gentle hillside and include manicured gardens, lotus ponds, and courtyards lined with glazed roof tiles and red columns.

Fo Guang Shan, founded in Taiwan in 1967 by Venerable Master Hsing Yun, built the temple; work began in 1992 and was completed in 1995. Hsing Yun reputedly chose the site for its proximity to Mount Kembla, said to resemble a recumbent lion. The land was donated by Frank Arkell, and the hill behind the temple is held on a 100-year lease at one dollar a year.

The name Nan Tien means "Southern Heaven Temple", expressing the aim of becoming a heaven in the southern hemisphere and fostering cultural exchange. Local Chinese Buddhists regard it as an orthodox temple, unlike shrines mixing Buddhist, Taoist and folk deities. Weekend retreats teach tai chi, calligraphy and meditation, and the temple frequently hosts festivals.

The complex sits on a hillside in Berkeley, reached by car via the Five Island Road exit off the M1 south of Wollongong, or by train to Unanderra and a 2.2 km walk. The Pilgrim Lodge, a 100-room motel-style facility beside the large lotus pond, houses retreat participants and general visitors. A pedestrian bridge over the Princes Motorway links the temple to the Nan Tien Institute opposite.

The hill behind the temple is leased from the local government for 100 years at a rent of one dollar a year, to keep the surroundings undeveloped. The site was chosen because Mount Kembla is said to resemble a recumbent lion.
