Sala – A Modern Sanctuary
Sala Temple is a contemporary Buddhist sanctuary that blends modern design with traditional spiritual elements. Featuring expansive glazing and locally sourced Tasmanian timber, the temple creates a serene space for reflection and community gatherings. Architectural highlights include large glazed panels offering views of the surrounding nature, symbolizing openness and connection, and the extensive use of timber, which adds warmth and sustainability. A striking golden Buddha statue, perched on ironbark stage boxes, serves as a symbol of enlightenment, while granite blessing spheres placed around the temple offer protection and embody spiritual aspirations. Sala Temple beautifully integrates innovative design with ancient tradition, enhancing both individual contemplation and communal bonds.
