According to Buddhist texts, we are living in an enormous cycle of time called the Fortunate Aeon. It is fortunate because it is believed that 1,000 Buddhas will be born and attain enlightenment so they can enlighten us. This place was created as a symbol of peace, inclusivity, and embracing all cultures and belief systems.
The organization that maintains it, Ewam International, offers courses, lessons, and retreats.
Visitors are welcome daily, although hours vary by season.
