Places to visit in Atherton

A spot of exercise is good for both our mental and physical health. Why not take the whole family and play some games in the large open space at O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park? Want some more options? Temples have long fascinated pilgrims searching for divine enlightenment. Pay a visit to the hallowed site of Hou Wang Temple and immerse yourself in your own sacred experience. But there's more. Clamber through the caverns, shafts and tunnels at Crystal Caves. If you have nerves of steel, try turning off your torch and spend some time in the pitch-black darkness.
