Zen and Dumplings at Chung Tian Temple
Escape the city at Brisbane's Zen Buddhist temple.
Overview
Did you know that Brisbane has its own Zen Buddhist temple? Opening in Logan back in 1993, the Chung Tian Temple is a portal to a different philosophy and a window into an alternative way of life. You'll feel like you're worlds away, without leaving Brissie.
You can easily while away your time just looking at the sights of this temple awash in the traditional gold and red of Chinese palace architecture. Explore further, and you'll discover all that the temple has to offer, from the Chan, Zen and Arhat Gardens, to the art gallery and the on-site museum. Entry is free and you can even do a guided tour — all they ask for is a small donation. And no trip is complete without a hot cuppa and dumplings at the Water Drop Teahouse.
