Guangzhou Big Buddha Temple

Spanning a whole block, this ritzy Buddhist temple complex is most noticeable by the monolithic Chinese building on Wenming Lu lit up at night like a birthday cake. The temple dates to the 10th century, though you would hardly know it. Authenticity issues aside, you'll see monks flitting about, and a trio of 10-ton bronze statues of Buddha representing past, present and future. Its accessible location near shopping streets ensures a constant crowd.
