LINH SON PAGODA IN DA LAT TOWN
 
The Linh S?n pagoda is located on a hill of 4 hectares in Nguyen Van Troi Street, nearly 1 kilometer northwest of ?à L?t. It was built from 1936 to 1940 through donations from Buddhists everywhere, especially the efforts of Vo Dinh Dung and Nguyen Van Tieng.

The entrance path is in the shady of pine rows and immeasurably high rubbers. Right at front yard, tourists can see the statue of Avalokitesvara standing on the lotus throne, the octagonal three-storey tower on the left, and the miniature mountains with beautiful bonsai trees on the right. There is also a lake standing out in relief of green grass patch, colorful water lilies, gold fish swimming carefree, making a cheerful sight.

The pagoda bears East Asian architecture, with two simple down-roofs; on the top a pair of dragons meandering in worship of the Sun. Alongside the step path to the sanctuary, there are also a pair of open-mouthed dragons engraved elaborately, a symbol of Dragon Deity preserving Dharmas.

The Buddha’s altar inside is decorated solemnly. The sanctuary is used for the worship of Buddha Shakyamuni deeply meditating in ecstasy on the lotus throne. The statue was cast of brass in 1952, weighting 1250 kg. Most Venerable Thich Tu Man has been the highest superior since 1964 and Buddhism’s Managing Council of Lam Dong province has its office here.
