Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery (Man Fat Tsz) is a Buddhist temple in Sha Tin, Hong Kong. It is located at 220 Pai Tau Village, Sha Tin. It is not an actual monastery as there are no resident monks and is managed by laypersons. ==Historic background== In 1951, Venerable Yuet Kai (), a devout Buddhist layman founded the Monastery,〔DeWolf, Christopher ("9 Hong Kong tourist traps - for better or worse" ) ''CNN Go''. 27 October 2010. Retrieved 2012-03-03〕 coming to Hong Kong in 1933. He preached Buddhism in a local monastery. He planned to establish a Buddhist college when he accepted an estate from a pious Buddhist who was also a rich merchant. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery was constructed at the beginning of 1949. Despite his old age, Yuet Kai carried the buildings materials personally from the foot of the mountain together with his disciples to build the monastery. It took eight years to complete all the buildings and another ten years to finish the 12,800 Buddha statues. Construction was finished in 1957.〔(Film Service Office:Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery )〕 Today, his preserved body is presented in the main hall of the monastery in a glass case. The Main Temple and the Pagoda of the Monastery are graded as Grade III Historic Buildings due to their historic significance.〔(List of the 1,444 Historic Buildings in Building Assessment ) (as of 24 October 2014)〕
