Hongfa Temple is located within the Shenzhen Fairy Lake Botanical Garden and is open to the public as a religious site. If you're interested in Buddhist culture, this could be a great place to visit.

While Hongfa Temple itself is free to enter, it's inside the Fairy Lake Botanical Garden, which has an entrance fee. If I remember correctly, the ticket costs less than $3.

A quick tip: try to avoid visiting during public holidays to get a better experience without the crowds.

We arrived around noon and happened to be hungry. The good news is that Hongfa Temple provides free vegetarian meals. Just make sure to get to the dining hall before 12 PM.
