Absolutely brilliant and not because I follow Buddhism. Lovely cafe with food you will come back for. Atmosphere is truly amazing. A place to just sit and be in the moment. Different art work from local artists. A must visit

Felt very welcomed here as part of Open Christchurch. A wonderful space and feeling in the building. A stunning embroidery exhibition and delicious food at the cafe.

We went for the art and light show. Initially I decided against going because it was so late for the kids, but they kept bugging me and it was worth it! The art was amazing and intricate but mostly the staff made the whole visit. As soon as we arrived someone was there to greet us and direct us where to go, every room had some lovely person to explain the area. Everyone was just so lovely and warm and welcoming. We particularly loved the lady at the counter who very patiently helped me learn a few words in Chinese. She has renewed my interest in learning the language. Upstairs they had calligraphy, my kids who struggle to sit still, sat there for half an hour writing over the examples with such intense interest and concentration. We will be going back again for sure.

I stumbled upon this temple and it's cafΓ© by mistake. A failed mission into town led me to walk past and see a sign for an embroidery exhibition. The exhibit was awesome. The staff was awesome, leading me around and showing me their favourite art works. Then, the cafΓ© was a gem. Something as simple as a ginger and lemon drink was made to perfection - my partner got the chai latte. As a chai latte fan myself I have to say it might be the best I've had in town - not overly sweet, naturally balanced (not out of a packet). I can't wait to go back for some food soon. Highly recommend!

These exquisite embroidered pictures are a must see. The gardens surrounded by decking are very calming and restful. A really pleasant morning's outing.
