Long Son Pagoda

Location: On Trai Thuy hill - the door to the south of Nha Trang City.

This is the biggest Buddhist pagoda in Khanh Hoa, formerly the Branch of the Buddhist Institute of Central Vietnam with a great white Buddha statue overlooking most of Nha Trang City.

Constructed in the 19th century and rebuilt in 1940, the overall architecture bears much modernity compared to many others ancient pagodas. Yet, it is still attractive to many thanks to the majestic structure, beautiful landscapes, and an easy access from the roads. Beside the huge pagoda are rows of classrooms, offices, etc. hidden in the foliage of age-old trees and orchards that ease down one’s mind and enhance the quietness of the place.
