Linh Quang Buddhist Center

The Linh Quang Buddhist Center is a Vietnamese Buddhist temple in Lincoln, Nebraska. The temple was established in downtown Lincoln in the early 1990s by Vietnamese families practicing Buddhism in a converted house. In 2007, a new temple would be built west of Lincoln, near Denton where the Linh Quang Buddhist Center would be relocated after one the temple's attendees donated his Powerball winnings.[1][2] After 4 years, the newly built temple would later host a grand opening ceremony to the public in 2011.[3] As of 2026, the temple is still up running and open to the public.
