The pagoda’s architectural style is a mix of old Vietnamese and Japanese, with Japanese-style wooden gates erected to guard the holy site. It also features a Japanese-style rock garden where monks gather at various times during the day to contemplate and discuss the teaching of Buddha.

Linh Quy Phap An Pagoda consists of three major structures: a contemplation hall, a library and a sanctuary. Visitors to the temple are welcomed to join the monks in their contemplation sessions and even to a meal. It is advisable to clean up after yourself and respect the monks’ privacy.

The pagoda became a popular destination among youngsters after music video ‘Lac Troi’ by Vietnamese pop music Son Tung was shot here, featuring breathtaking views from the mountaintop and a Shangri-La-like atmosphere./.
