The dharma bell and bronze dharma drum, located on the sides of the Grand Buddha Hall, have a long history. The bronze bell was donated by Sir Robert Ho Tung and Lady Clara, while the bell’s surface is engraved with the Great Compassion Mantra, handwritten by Master Ai Ting.

In general, in Buddhist temples, the drum and bell are commonly placed on the left and right sides of the front of the main hall, hence the term “left drum, right bell.”
