Hampton, Minnesota -
Cambodian Buddhist Temple

Watt Munisotaram is one of the largest Cambodian Buddhist temples (or wats) in America. Buildings are visible from roadway; also visible is a large gilded statue of the Buddha beneath an open-sided pavilion in front of the main structure.

I've never tried to gain access to the temple, so I don't know if it is open to the public; it is possible that some public access might be allowed during events such as the Cambodian New Year. But if you're coming to view the "Big Beach Dude" of Hampton just a couple miles away, you might as well cruise past this place. [Bicycle Bill, 01/12/2010]
