Thien Hau Temple

I frequently visit this temple whenever I go to California. The peaceful feeling being there is such an experience.

A very unique and built with traditional architecture Buddhist temple. I was told this is the very first temple in US. When I arrived it was out of the operation time, but the staff were helpful to let me in there. Thank you, I hope to come here again.

This temple is very welcoming to everyone. It’s doesn’t matter if you’re Buddhist or just curious and want to come in. There are usually volunteers there that speak English, Mandarin, or Vietnamese. They are very friendly. They can either give you a tour of the temple and give you a brief explanation of each of the main statutes or where to put the incense. Otherwise you can just tour the temple at your own pace no one will bother you. Photography is allowed. Donations is optional, they do work hard to keep the place clean so I recommend leaving some. Everyone there work as a volunteer. Any amount is ok! It also a great place to come a meditate, ask for your fortune (by shaking the wooden bottle with all the wooden sticks, each stick have a number, keep shaking until 1 come out, and take that number to the board with all the yellow paper or the folder underneath and it will explain your fortune for you). However if more than one sticks fall out you must start again. Word of advice, till the bottle as you shake it, it will make it easier. Good luck :-)) I hope you enjoy this place as much as I do. I go here weekly.
