What a great opportunity to learn more about Buddhist culture. The statues are very ornate and detailed telling a chronological history of Buddha's life. The grounds were very peaceful. And while we did our best to adhere to proper etiquette, no one was there to judge our behavior. Definitely worth an afternoon visit.

Lots to see. Fortunate enough to go inside the temple as they were setting up for a wedding. Loved watching others practice traditional Buddhist prayers while there too.

It's the only BIG Cambodian Buddhist Temple in California with vast land for free parking on Cambodian New Year that's the time you should come with so many foods choices to choose. They usually celebrate 4 days. FREE admission for everyone or school trip.

Buddhist Temple in Stockton, CA. Buddha’s life story is depicted through huge statues in the grounds. A peaceful venue to calm the mind and learn about Gautam Buddha.

Tranquil, awesome sculpture, great display of God's and goddesses that represents culture. Loved it. Lord Buddha was born in Kapilvastu, Lumbini, Nepal.

Enjoyed the tranquil and pretty much unrestricted access. You are allowed to tour by yourself and they trust you be a good visitor. Lots of space to have a family picnic lunch (bring your own vegetarian food) and facilities are clean.
