Our wedding ceremony took place here almost 10 years ago so this temple holds a special place in my heart. A few years ago the main meditation center collapsed (luckily no one was hurt) so I was glad to know it was being renovated. It was the biggest Vietnamese temple in Houston; when the remodeling project is completed it will be even bigger and better. As such, on major Buddhist holidays and events, the place is packed. Parking can be tight but the organizers provide courtesy shuttle services from another lot to here. Leave your best shoes home on overcast or rainy days as the lot can be muddy.

Beautiful temple, very big and spacious. The surrounding was peaceful.

Not too big, not too small but calm, quiet, and meditating. There were pretty many events holding every month, especially for Mid-Autumn, Buddhas Birthday, and Lunar New Year. A common place to go to for worshipping of the Vietnamese community living nearby.

Beautiful temple and can hold over 700. Grounds are still under construction and can be messy on rainey days. So far this is the nicest Buddhist temple. Highly recommended and a must see.

One of the Vietnamese temple thats my family use to go every weekend. Thousands of people come and go each week. Great atmosphere specially on the weekend. This temple have a school for Vietnamese kids to learn there language, history, culture, and the Vietnamese traditional. Also alot of good activity for kids and teenagers.

With an unpresuming entrance on a wide, sparely used road, this Buddhist temple offers a nostalgic reprieve from the business of suburban Houston, even if one is not necessarily Buddhist or religious at all.Inside, the temple grounds is impressively big, and many of the old buildings are being rebuilt/renovated to give it a fresh look. However, classic monuments like the impressively tall Ling Ung Pagoda can be seen from far way while driving.For those looking for a hidden gem in Houston, I highly recommend visiting Sunday afternoon, or morning (if youre not at church). The temple sells its own vegetarian food at a price cheaper than any vegetarian establishment Ive been to, even in Chinatown. Plus, the people and vendors there are very friendly and most can speak conversational level English, so there is no need to be intimidated.

The parking lot is way to tight. The road is full of holes. It is peaceful but it looks like the construction is slowly happening. The school buildings in the back look condemned and unsafe. It looks like a ghost town

Very peaceful place. Friendly people who leave you alone (even if youre not from their community like me) to meditate, self-reflect, ponder and wander around their amazing grounds.Been going here for the last 5 years. One of my fondest memories here - I was meditating by myself in their huge meditation hall, near their closing time (9:30 pm) on a humid summer evening. One of the resident monks who came for his prayers, turned on the ceiling fan for me, as he left the hall. Very mindful and welcoming of all practitioners and visitors.Great place to spend with family to enjoy quietness and stillness of nature. Generally not crowded on weekends.
