I stopped when cycling down Riccarton Rd. when I saw this lovely wooden building.
There was a great photo exhibition with photos on NZ.
There is a small shop of chinese buddhist articles, books and paraphernalia.
And a cafe.

I frequently visit Fo Guang Shan temple, not only for there awesome waterdrop cafe but there is always something interesting going on, i especially like the Dhama talks on the weekend and the little cards with motivational quotes! really should be on your list of places to regularly visit if your in Christchurch.

Hello 吉祥, can we reach Christchurch Fgs by bus? Any bus stand nearby? Or have to use taxi if we are from city? Thanks

Is the Christchurch cafe similiar to the Waterdrop at Flat Bush. I was there yesterday and it was absolutely amazing so am hoping for a similar extensive menu in Christchurch.
