Hong Kong’s Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery is a 20th century addition to China’s many, incredible Buddhist temples. Construction was completed in 1957, and the result was a complex consisting of a pagoda, a veranda, four pavilions, and five distinct temples. It’s interesting to note that the monastery’s name is actually rather modest, as there are in fact 12,800 unique Buddha statues adorning the walls.
