Vihara Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is a beautiful Buddhist temple, located in the city of Tanjung Pinang on Bintan island, Indonesia. There are only a few monasteries dedicated to the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Tanjung Pinang island has one of its temples.
Perhaps, the Chinese culture here is influenced by the nearby country, Singapore.
This temple was opened in 2017 and showcase a remarkable 500 Lohan statues, which is unlike the magnificent Terracotta army in China. They are captivating. The statues are made by an artist in China, each one formed like a human, depicting Buddhist monks. Their costumes, faces, facial expressions of each statue are lovely to see.
Meanwhile, inside the temple, you will find 40 statues of referred gods.
The 500 statues are not the only attraction here. When entering the temple, you will also impress by the giant statue that stands to guard the temple in the front of the Vihara. What a nice surprise to welcome you who visit this temple, either for praying or sightseeing.
This place is peaceful and calm. You will see the more beautiful view as you go around the temple.
If you walk further to the hillside, you will see a nice view of the gold Buddha. It was magnificent.
With that being said, Indonesia is not only the place for beautiful mosques and churches, but also this amazing Vihara Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. This fact confirms the country’s motto of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika which means unity in diversity.
