"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Located beneath the Christ Temple, the Lotus Crypt was made of granite and is a quiet room that can accommodate around 10 people. When you visit, you will first go through a confessional before entering the quiet room wherein believers will confess their sins. Inside the quiet room, you will see a lotus cross stained glass where the light comes through. Because it is the only light source in the room, the soft light and reverberation make the Lotus Crypt an excellent place to pray and meditate.
Meditation on Scripture
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

Walk With Tao Fong
Tao Fong Shan Christian Center was founded by a Norwegian missionary Rev. Karl Ludvig Reichelt from over 90 years ago. Located on a scenic hill above Sha Tin, the Centre has been accorded Grade 2 Historic Building and is considered state-of-the-art in many ways, from combining traditional Chinese architecture with Christian faith to having a rich history of nurturing interfaith and interculture dialogue to preaching gosel through Chinese Christian porcerlain art. Today, the Centre remains a melting pot of religions, cultures, and stories.
To tell the many wonderful stories and history of Tao Fong Shan, we created a series of guided tours, Walk with Tao Fong. Our staff will arrange a tour for you or your friends depending on your interests, it is a great experience for you if you hope to enjoy a day of peace and away from the city, or if you want to learn more about who we are or the story behind our traditional Chinese architecture.
