About 30 minutes from our accommodation, discover a place as surprising as it is peaceful: the Buddhist Temple of Plouray , in the heart of Morbihan. Founded in 1984 by the 16th Karmapa, spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, Karma Kagyu, this spiritual center is one of the oldest in Western Europe.
Nestled in nature, surrounded by Breton forests and hills, the temple of Plouray is a true haven of peace. Each year, it attracts visitors, practitioners, and curious souls seeking tranquility, meditation, and spirituality. Here, one can discover typical Tibetan architecture , a stupa , colorful prayer flags, and a retreat center that is active year-round.
The site is open to the public on certain days, particularly during guided tours or cultural events. It's a great opportunity to learn about Buddhist philosophy, visit the main temple, or simply enjoy the serene atmosphere of the place.
