Welcome to NEO - Nalanda Education & Outreach Centre @ Happy Garden!
'NEO' literally means “new”. It is a new centre catering to a large Buddhist community in the vicinity of Happy Garden, OUG, Kuchai Lama, Sri Petaling and Old Klang Road, providing a place for the community to learn and understand Buddhism.
11 December 2011 was the aupicious day when we dedicated the place to the Triple Gem, for the learning, practice and propagation of Buddha-Dhamma.
