Buddha's Birthday Celebrations, Darling Harbour

Darling Harbour came alive last weekend with the annual Buddha's Birthday Celebrations held by Nan Tien Temple. A giant Buddha held centre stage on the Chinese Gardens forecourt, flanked by a myriad of stalls selling arts and crafts, Buddhist literature and, most importantly, lots of mouthwatering vegetarian food.
