Maha Vihara Maitreya, Buddhist temple in Deli Serdang, Indonesia.

The temple spans 4.5 hectares within the Cemara Asri Housing Complex, featuring multiple buildings with ornamental designs, carvings, and Buddha statues throughout the grounds.

After construction began in 1991, Maha Vihara Maitreya officially opened its doors on August 21, 2008, establishing itself as Indonesia's largest modern Buddhist temple.

The temple includes three main sections with multiple Baktisala halls dedicated to Buddha Sakyamuni, Bodhisattva, and Bodhisattva Satyakalama Avolokitesvara, accommodating thousands of worshippers.

Located 25.3 kilometers from Medan City, the temple contains meeting spaces, recording studios, office facilities, and a communal kitchen for community gatherings.
