With its majestic temples, immaculate statues and beautiful gardens, Nan Tien Buddhist Temple was truly a sight to behold. After a two-hour bus drive, Ms Rosin’s Year 9 Jewish Studies class was excited to see the biggest Buddhist temple in the Southern Hemisphere and we were not disappointed! Throughout the day we experienced Buddhist calligraphy, a breathtaking museum of Buddhist art, a lunch that managed to be both vegan and taste good and a lesson on Buddhism by a Venerable. Overall it was a fascinating, eye-opening and really fun excursion.
