My daughter and I took a road trip from Gold Coast to Sydney during our visit to Australia. We visited some long lost relatives and dear friends who urged us to visit the largest Buddhist temple in the Southern Hemisphere, in Wollongong.
The road from Sydney to Wollongong is spectacular, through mountains and skirting several small towns. Wollongong is the third largest city in new South Wales and is about 80 minutes from Sydney.
The Nan Tien (which means "Southern Paradise") Temple is spectacular. It opened its doors in October 1995 and offers classes and conference facilities as well as a coffee and gift shop.
It was such a perfect day, the air was crisp and the sky an unbelievable azure. I treasure the memory of that day and wanted to share it here.
