Quang Minh Buddhist Temple

Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia

The Quang Minh Buddhist Temple is in Melbourne's west, located near Footscray, which has one of Australia's largest Vietnamese communities. Many Vietnamese profess some form of Buddhism, though a significant number of Vietnamese are Catholic This colourful temple is dedicated to the Buddha. He was not a god, but a teacher who taught people to be free from desire and therefore attain nirvana and freedom from suffering. This temple teaches a form of Mahayana Buddhism, often known as "Greater Vehicle" Buddhism, common in China and Japan as well as Vietnam. Visitors are welcome. Please remember that you are in a prayerful environment and act appropriately. If you have not travelled in Asia, some aspects of the temple may be surprising, but it will be interesting.
