Buddhapadipa Temple

When it was built in the early 1980s, this was the only Thai temple in the Europe. The Shrine Room contains a golden statue of Buddha, a copy of the Buddha Sihing that is on show in Bangkok's National Museum. The grounds of the Temple cover an area of approximately four acre, featuring an ornamental lake, a small grove, flower garden and an orchard. Tours of the site are held as part of Open House London, which takes place in September.
