Breathtaking views and something you would not expect to see in the US. Make sure to reserve online ahead of time and to wear masks while on the premises. It is a place of worship, so they do have guidelines on appropriate clothing. The temple is beautiful and definitely worth stopping by if in the area.

My first visit to a Buddhist temple in USA. Its just Beautiful and so peaceful place with a beautiful scenic view around it. Masks are must to wear and need to book a reservation for entrance, very easy, through the website. Due to covid, many of the parts of the temple were closed but still a lot to look and enjoy some peace. Offerings to buy ,cost $20, incense sticks 1 per person are free for doing prayer. No pictures are allowed of the main worship area. Only outdoors, which is great too. Restrooms are available on the 2nd floor, cafeteria was closed.
Nidhi Bansal
Beautiful & Peaceful monastery . The architecture is impressive. Masks required throughout. Also, they have a small museum ,which you can visit for $1 / person. The book store and gift shop was there. Volunteers are doing a wonderful job there,!

Randomly found this place when we had a spare hour and we loved it!!! So calm and peaceful. Beautiful temple to learn about other religions and culture. Absolutely amazing view of the temple with the mountains at the background! It’s free to enter but you need to have a reservation! 30 min to 1 hour is more than enough to do a quick walk around and explore. If you want to learn more and deep dive into the history - you might spend more time there.

Hola! Es libre de visitar el templo. Todo lo que necesita hacer es hacer una cita para visitar el templo antes de llegar. Si usted tiene dificultad, usted puede proceder a la puerta principal, el voluntario podría ayudarle a hacer una reserva en el lugar. Que tengas un buen día!
You can even drive there whenever you want to visit. There will be guards at the front gate asking if you have an appointment. If you dont, the guard will have you scan a qr code and to setup appointment at the same time. Then they will allow you to go in.
Restaurant is not open yet...!!!
Girls do n’t stay in temples, and animals do n’t enter temples. The allusions have a long history. Think about it.
Hi Vijay, Thanks for asking. The Dining Hall is currently not opened to the public. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. For temple visit appointment: http://www.hsilai.org/en/events/hltOG.php Thank you and may you have a good day~

Yes temple accept all visitors, just go in, the hours 9a.m.-5 p.m.

There is often traffic jam at the airport, so it is difficult to test the time.
Parking is free, if the parking lot immediately around the temple is full they also have free on street parking near the temple. Since the temple is on a hill it is a little bit of a stretch to park on the street an walk up the hill, so depending on the health of those with you, you may want to drop them off in front of the temple and then go park the car.
I'm not sure. You may want to check with the temple.
