DOI PAGODA IN SOC TRANG TOWN
 
The Doi Pagoda is located on Le Hong Phong St., 2km from downtown Soc Trang. The pagoda is famous for its beautiful architecture, especially its very large roof that houses tens of thousands of bats. Doi Pagoda (Bat Pagoda) also called Ma Toc Pagoda, or Mahatuc Pagoda was built during the 16th century, and it has been renovated several times since. The pagoda is famous for its beautiful architecture, especially its very large roof that houses tens of thousands of bats. They cling to tree branches all day, fly away at night to seek food, and return the following morning. The bats never eat the fruit in the garden.
An ancient Buddha statue and a number of Buddhist books written on sugar palm leaves can be admired there.
