WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
About Aloka Vihara
Aloka Vihara is a traditional Theravada Buddhist Temple in Newcastle upon Tyne. We are a proud Buddhist society, providing religious services and aiding the development of other services, particularly in Sri Lanka, as well as within the community, irrespective of their individual religion and beliefs.
A sacred place of teaching; we focus on the practice of mindfulness through meditation and host a program monthly, designed for children, where they can develop spiritual practices and disciples by understanding cultural and traditional values.
