Amaravati kitchen has re-opened
The recent refurbishment work to the kitchen at Amaravati has been completed to schedule and all meals and meal preparation are once again taking place in the main monastery kitchen and Sala. Please note that in order to reduce congestion we would ask that anyone bringing food offerings come in through the Sala and not use the back entrances to the kitchen. Visitor entrances will be clearly signposted. Thank you for your cooperation.
