The site is in an old commercial building. The project aims to provide a comfortable worship experience for the devotees. The design is inspired by the story of Sakyamuni Buddha's enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. The designer combined natural elements and Buddhist culture to create a space that is divine yet close to nature. The space is centered on nature, connecting people with wisdom and awakening. The “Seven Steps to Lotus” pattern on the floor reinforces the significance of each step for spiritual purification.

The lighting plan and dark colors shape a solemn atmosphere, serving as an ideal space for meditation and worship. The project fully embodies the spirit of Buddhist tradition, while also catering to the aesthetic and comfort needs of believers. The designer perfectly utilized the structure of the old building to blend existing elements with new design concepts to ensure environmental friendliness and sustainability.
