Chi Chuk Lam is located halfway up Kwun Yam Mountain. To the left of the Chi Chi Ting, a pathway leads directly upwards through concrete steps to a sanctuary, a series of three connected buildings known as the Chi Chuk Lam. Bhikkhunis Fa Wai, Fat Sum and Fat Sheung founded this place in 1918.

The main building is built a in local vernacular style that reflects the old building construction customs on Lantau at that time. It is a typical part of Lantau original culture. A number of buildings of similar design remain in the surroundings.

There are two small shrines and a small pavilion of Western style on the back sloped and downhill of the monastery. Chi Chuk Lam consists of a main building and a pavilion Chi Chi Ting. It is a western style pavilion in an L-shape plan. It is probably constructed of bricks and stone with its columns to support its pitched roof. The front portion of the structure is with two arched openings on either side. The middle of each of the moulded arches is with a key stone. The columns are with mouldings for decoration. The walls are plastered and painted with white colour. Long rows of seats are provided along the walls.

The surrounding outdoor space is planted with papaya fruit trees, which bear abundant fruit that is highly sought after by many.
