位于臺中市北屯區(qū)健行路上，是福建臨濟(jì)宗僧人良達(dá)法師于1928年建，為鼓樓式建筑。殿宇氣勢雄偉，金碧輝煌。正殿供奉三尊釋迦牟尼佛像和一尊古銅解夢觀音像。殿右是一座圓錐型的七層寶塔，每一層都供有一尊七寶如來佛像。塔高23米，登塔可遠(yuǎn)眺碧綠的臺中盆地及雄偉的中央山脈。寶覺寺左邊有一座巨型彌勒佛塑像，高達(dá)27米，相當(dāng)于八九層樓高，成為該寺的一大特征。
大佛前有一庭園廣場，叫做“同心公園”，園內(nèi)陳列許多小歡喜佛，還有一80年前的運(yùn)煤火車頭。古意盎然，常吸引游客的眼光。

三寶佛！莊嚴(yán)殊勝！來到這里就像回家一樣溫暖，有想哭的沖動，不知為何?！大殿中供著阿彌陀佛、觀世音菩薩、地藏王菩薩還有彌勒佛，面容親切和藹，眼神千慈萬祥，一個合掌一個叩首都能讓心靈霎時(shí)沉靜下來?。?！南無阿彌陀佛！

從臺中火車站坐巴士大概20分鐘就能到這里,它就在臺中公園附近。許多當(dāng)?shù)厝藭磉@里祭拜他們的祖先,佛像看起來很新,主建筑里還有一尊從正門就能看見的大佛像,開始我都錯過了這里,是后來我試圖尋找回火車站的汽車時(shí),才發(fā)現(xiàn)的這個驚人之作!

從臺中站步行15分鐘左右就能看到一尊巨大的彌勒菩薩,很醒目。不用專門來這里觀光,從臺中站到這里的直線上,有一家豪華的主題餐廳香蕉新樂園,還有日本殖民時(shí)代建造的廣闊的臺中公園,可以一起觀光。

It's a huge temple complex. Almost no other tourists around during our visit so if you're looking to reflect and just relax, go this Pao Chueh Temple and take photo with the Bug Buddha!

If you need peace and tranquillity, come to PaoChueh Temple. It seems that, despite near to the road, the place seems uhiquely quiet and calm. Furthermore, you will be enlightened s with the huge seven-storey golden Smiling Buddha smiling at you.The place is well-maintained, with the Big Buddha on the right, a temple on the left and Shinto shrine further left.

If u have some time to spare in Taichung, do drop by this place. I thought the architecture of the temple was quite unique, with one building built within a larger structure. The huge Buddha statue was certainly impressive. The surrounding area is not big but certainly pleasant and a good way to spend a peaceful hour in these well maintained environment.

For the moment, I will not dwell on the shock at realizing that this remarkable temple is listed as the No. 10 attraction in Taichung - while the High-Speed train station is listed as No. 1...Makes one wonder who is writing these reviews...At any rate, some friends in Taichung took us to this absolutely delightful temple one sunny afternoon while we were visiting. The sheer scale of the gold Buddha literally stopped me in my tracks. There are pretty gardens and pathways and the area is very well-maintained and peaceful. If you are visiting Taichung come here and spend a good hour - the high-speed train station can definitely wait!

Spotted this from the school I was visiting to see students I worked with in America during the summer. Once we saw it, we had to go there. It's a massive, fat, and happy Buddha that is next to an important temple for Japanese ancestors. Nobody was there, which made it a great experience and an excellent photo op. Compared to the big buddha in Hong Kong (which is a great experience to see as well) this was more enjoyable, relaxing, and best of all, free!Take the # 100 bus to Shin Min High School stop. Walk around the corner and down the street and you will spot it. Otherwise, just print a picture of this and show it to someone who will gladly walk you there.

Though not as common as in Tainan, there is definitely no shortage of temples in Taichung; tucked away in side alleys or prominently present on main thoroughfares, there are quite a few examples of both Buddhist and Daoist temples to be found everywhere.Baojueshi (as it is transliterated in Hanyu Pinyin) is different however and for three reasons. First of all there is the huge Milofo (or Maitreya) to the right, next to the Buddhist Academy Building. A must for a photo shoot if you're passing through. The building used to be accessible before, but the outside is definitely more impressive than the inside spaces. Then there is the "old temple under the new roof". This was quite an engineering feat since the old building was lifted and rolled out of the way to the front to allow construction of the outside shell that covers it now and then wheeled back to its current location. Finally there is a smaller memorial to the left, right in front of the building where they store the ashes of deceased people. It is good to know that after the Japanese occupation of Taiwan (1895-1945) all remains of Japanese soldiers were collected and interred here in Taichung at this spot. This explains why there are daily visits of Japanese tourists here: this is the one place that is on most of their itineraries because of that reason alone.
