| - Buddharama Temple Fredrika (Thai: วัดพุทธาราม; RTGS: wat phuttharam) is a planned Theravada Buddhist temple (“Wat”) near Fredrika in Åsele Municipality, Sweden. Construction began in 2004, and at that point it was scheduled to become the largest Buddhist temple in Europe. However, due to several economical and practical difficulties, the project was radically downsized and the budget was lowered to about 10% of the initial budget. As of 2020, construction of the temple itself had yet to begin. The plan is to build a 300 square meter building, but before construction can begin, the organization stated that they intended to pay off their debts of about half a million SEK. The COVID-19 pandemic has also caused further delays of the project. In 2014, the public-service telecaster Sveriges Television made a 1-hour documentary about the temple project, with the title Tempelriddaren (literally "The Knight Templar"). The documentary is centered around the former municipal commissioner Bert-Rune Dahlberg and his involvement in the project. Dahlberg has been involved in the project since the beginning. His motive has been a hope that this temple may bring large amounts of tourism to Fredrika, which would greatly benefit the municipality economically. In a scholarly article from 2015, it was stated that Buddharama Temple Sweden had a small temple building nearby, named Wat Buddharama Fredrika, that housed one monk. (en)
- Buddharamatemplet i Fredrika är ett planerat theravadabuddhistiskt tempel i Fredrika, Åsele kommun. I nära anslutning till platsen har det dock under många år levt ett fåtal thailändska buddhistmunkar, som ibland vistas på tempelplatsen. Projektet inleddes 2004, då tanken var att templet skulle bli Europas största. På grund av flera ekonomiska och praktiska hinder blev det dock nödvändigt att minska budgeten med 90 procentenheter, vilket medfört att planerna kring tempelbygget förändrats. 2020 hade byggandet på själva templet inte börjat. Planen är att bygga en 300-kvadratmeter stor tempelbyggnad, men innan detta bygge kan inledas avser föreningen att betala av sin skuld på cirka en halv miljon kronor. Dessutom har covid-19 pandemin medfört ytterligare hinder för projektet. 2014 gjorde Sveriges Television en dokumentärfilm - Tempelriddaren - som handlar om det tidigare kommunalrådet Bert-Rune Dahlberg, som varit djupt involverad i projektet sedan dess begynnelse. Dahlberg har själv uppgett att hans förhoppning är att templet, när det är färdigt, ska leda till en kraftigt ökad turism till Fredrika, vilket skulle gynna byn och kommunens ekonomi. (sv)
