History

The temple was at 206 Cherokee Path in Flower Mound by 2012. A 2013 list of Khmer Buddhist temples around the world placed it among the temples of Texas. Its Flower Mound ZIP code is given as 75208 in some temple lists and as 75028 in others.

The Cambodian Buddhist Society of North Texas has been a tax-exempt Buddhist religious organization since July 2003. Its registered address is 206 Cherokee Path in Flower Mound, Texas, in care of the temple. In 2014 the temple itself was listed at that Flower Mound address, with the same telephone number it still uses. The society later announced that the temple had relocated to 1578 County Road 278 in Kaufman, the address the 2026 directory gives.
