What Is the Buddhist Place of Worship Called?

Buddhist worship is generally practiced while sitting on the floor, without any shoes on. Worship done in a temple usually includes monks chanting prayers or religious texts. Music might also be a part of the worship. Temples include symbolism for earth, water, fire, air and wisdom. During worship, everyone faces a picture or statue of Buddha. When people worship Buddha in their homes, they usually have a room dedicated to the practice. This room usually contains a shrine to Buddha.
