Hong Kong's new monastery, funded entirely by tycoon Li Ka-shing, opened to the public on April 15, 2015. The new monastery features the world's second tallest Guanyin statue--the Goddess of Mercy--and bulletproof VIP rooms. At 76 meters, the statue looks over the site and out to the harbor. The monastery is funded entirely by the Asia's richest man who contributed 193 million U.S. dollars from his personal foundation to fund the monastery's construction.
