Why it's Wildland
3.4A Theravada Buddhist community and meditation centre on the Tumblefield Estate, where the visit is centred on Buddhist practice, meditation and teachings rather than a historic-monument tour.
Kent Temple offers a distinctive opportunity to encounter Buddhist practice in a local monastery, with meditation and Dhamma activities described by the temple itself. Its appeal is reflective and cultural, rather than a landscape or wildlife experience; visits should be arranged directly with the temple.
