Buddhist Hermitage Lunas

Lunas Buddhist Hermitage (28 January, 2007)


Lunas Buddhist Hermitage is a Theravada Buddhist meditation retreat in Lunas, Kedah. It was set up in 1990 by the venerable Suvanno, a monk that was fluent in English as well as Hokkien. The Buddhist Hermitage Lunas is said to have also received the patronage of one of the wives of Soon Ah Lee, the founder of Lunas town.

I explored the Buddhist Hermitage Lunas with members of Penang Heritage Trust, of which I am a Council Member, on a site trip to Lunas in January 2007.
