The Fo Guang Shan Nan Tien temple in Wollongong is  a major centre for Buddhist learning in Australia. The temple is open to the public and provides an excellent insight into its workings. Remember to act respectfully at all times and remove  shoes when requested (for most temples).

The temple and adjoining pagoda temple are works of art in themselves and the decoration inside is beautiful.

The gardens surrounding the temple are beautiful and contain many statues which are worth looking at. Photography is allowed in the gardens and exterior of the temples which is great because they are fantastic.

We found that access and parking was simple.  Signs direct you to the temple as you travel from Wollongong and there is a huge car park at the main temple. The monks were all very friendly and happy to discuss the works of the temple as well as Buddhism.
