temple

Nan Hua is the name of the South African branch of the Humanistic Buddhist order, Fo Guang Shan, whose mission is to spread Humanistic Buddhism to all the continents on Earth. Nan Hua acts as the central religious and administrative office for all Fo Guang Shan branches in Africa, which include temples and centres throughout South Africa, Malawi, Tanzania and Congo.

Nan Hua is located more or less 50km east of Pretoria and 70km North East of Johannesburg, in Cultura Park, a suburb of Bronkhorstpruit. A very central location to have the temple, being only a stone-throw away from OR Tambo International Airport and the administrative facilities provided by significant cities but still far enough to maintain a calm and peaceful environment outside the high-stress city life.
