Tsz Shan Monastery Located in Tai Po’s Tung Tsz hills near Tai Mei Tuk, the 500,000 square feet Tsz Shan Monastery represents an unadorned and elegant style resembling the monastic architecture of the Tang Dynasty. Completed in 2013, the 76-meter tall statue at Tsz Shan Monastery is the world’s tallest Avalokitesvara (Guan Yin) bronze statue. 1 billion HKD was donated by Li Ka-Shing, the richest man in Hong Kong, chairman of the Cheung Kong Group and the Li Ka Shing Foundation, to benefit society through the propagation of the Dharma. In terms of Feng Shui, the Guan Yin statue is standing at the foot of Shun Yeung Fung on Pak Sin Leng mountain range, facing southwest towards the Plover Cove. “Fronting water and with hills on the back” is the best layout for choosing a construction location. On the other hand, the Tian Tan Buddha located at Ngong Ping highland in west Lantau Island is facing northeast towards mainland China. So, these two landmarks in Hong Kong are actually facing each other, wishing Hong Kong a peaceful and bright future.
