Discover a hidden oasis filled with masterful artworks at Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery (Man Fat Sze). While not technically a monastery, this hilltop complex retains all the architectural features of a Buddhist monastery and radiates meditative atmosphere. Its best-known features remain its statues of Buddha--over 12,000 of them, with no two exactly the same. A hillside path lined with some of the statues lead you up to the monastery, where you can admire the rest of the collection. Rest and rejuvenate at the hilltop cafe, which serves drinks and snacks.

What a cool and unique experience! To get to 10,000 Buddhas monastery, you essentially have to hike up from the base of the mountain in Sha Tin all the way to the lower Terrace where the main temple is located. The entire path up is lined on both sides with life size golden Buddha statues (not the 10,000 Buddhas) each with a unique pose. On the lower Terrace, you see the Pagoda and the main hall where the 10,000 (actually ~13,000) Buddha statues are housed. On the upper terrace, there are a few other temples and a small courtyard lined on all 4 sides with gray colored statues of Generals, as per the Chinese horoscope. If you’re lucky, you may also get some monkey action while visiting the Pagoda. :)

Nice hike from the base of the mountain to the top where the Buddhist monastery is located. Pictures to be taken from start to finish and nice to relax at the top and take in the sights it has to offer.
