Tibetan Temple

Binh Duong Tibetan Temple is a famous ancient temple with the most sacredness in the South. Coming here, you will be immersed in the pure atmosphere with each sound of the temple bell. Binh Duong Tibetan Temple was built in the typical architectural style of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism, the highlight is the statue of Bodhidharma created from the real hair of thousands of Buddhists. The temple space is very large, planted with many trees, especially ancient trees, so the air is very cool and fresh. In recent years, thanks to the growing development of spiritual tourism in Binh Duong, Tibetan temples have also attracted more people's attention and visits. For those of you who have ever had the opportunity to visit Vung Tau Tibetan Temple, you will realize that these two temples have many similarities in architecture. Binh Duong Tibetan Temple was built in the early 20th century, around 1928. This pagoda was started by Zen Master Minh Tinh. Initially, the pagoda was named Buu Huong, belonging to the Northern sect. At this time, the pagoda was just a small hut to worship Buddha and for Zen masters to practice. In 1937, the pagoda was renamed Tibet Pagoda by Zen Master Minh Tinh. Binh Duong Tibetan Pagoda is famous for its typical Northern Buddhism architecture, designed with many similarities to temples in Tibet. Not featuring traditional Vietnamese architecture, Tibetan pagodas give us a very different feeling about Buddhism from the beginning, with images filled with mystical Tantric images. The main hall area is designed with many square shapes, in the middle is a tower and quadrilaterals with a height of about 15m. The top floor is also the roof of the temple, containing five statues of five Buddhas representing Tibetan Buddhism. In particular, the statue of Buddha Tathagata has a shape very similar to the Mandala Buddha in Tantric concept. The deeper you go inside the main hall area, the more differences you will see between Binh Duong Tibetan Temple and traditional Vietnamese temples such as Hoi Khanh Pagoda, Chau Thoi Pagoda, etc. In the middle of the shrine is a statue of Shakyamuni Buddha meditating, the statue is about 2.3 meters high, surrounded by statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. The special thing is that the temple space is not decorated with many dragon and phoenix motifs, the architecture is quite simple, creating a mysterious feeling. Therefore, if you have the opportunity to visit the Tibetan temple, you will have a very deep impression of the architecture of this temple. Binh Duong Tibetan Temple has been recognized by Guinness Vietnam Records as the temple with the largest statue made of hair.

After that, the tunnel system was expanded deeper and longer.
