#Chinese architecture Linh Ung Pagoda, a very large Guanyin statue Linh Ung Pagoda (Linh Ứng) is located on Son Tra Island, north of Da Nang City. There is a white cement statue of Guanyin standing with his back to the mountain, facing the sea to protect the fishermen who go out to fish. The sound of the temple bell that rings in harmony with the sound of the waves helps the sailors feel calm and builds great morale. The atmosphere in the temple will see the view of the Da Nang sea, which is very beautiful. There are trees, shady and many monkeys here. But the monkeys are cute and still for tourists to take pictures 😃 Travel We called Grab from the hotel. The cost was 120,000 dong. We came in the evening. For those who are into spirituality and praying, I recommend this place. Fast results, great results‼️ ⭐️Satisfaction: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 #100 ways to travel #Vietnam travel #Vietnam travel

🎡Ba Na Hills is a 40-minute drive from the famous coastal city of Da Nang. The entire attraction is a magical world built above the clouds on the mountain top🌎. Taking the world's longest and highest (with the greatest drop) cable car through the clouds to the top of the mountain, the cable car ride lasts about 30 minutes, offering a bird's-eye view of the trees, waterfalls, and more on Ba Na Hills. 🏨This time, we stayed at the hotel on the mountain top, named Mercure Danang French Village Bana Hills, the only one on the top. Of course, you can also choose to stay in Da Nang city and come in the morning and return in the evening. 🏰Upon reaching the top, after getting off the cable car🚡, you are directly inside the French Village, which features European-style buildings, including castles, churches, markets, and theaters. Since this is Vietnam🇻🇳, there are naturally also Chinese-style temples, such as the Linh Phong Zen Temple⛩️. 🎠As an amusement park, Ba Na Hills naturally has various amusement rides, including outdoor ones like carousels, swing rides, and roller coasters. Imagine riding a roller coaster above the clouds, looking at the clouds below☁️, it feels super thrilling; there are also indoor rides like drop towers and bumper cars. The park also offers song and dance performances, live cosplay, market restaurants, and more. 🌄At the edge of the eclipse platform in the distance, there are European-style sculptures. Watching the sunset below the clouds from here is truly beautiful! In the distance, there is a giant Buddha statue standing above the clouds, located at the Linh Ung Pagoda. From the top of Ba Na Hills, the Buddha statue looks like it is sitting in the clouds, with its upper body emerging from the clouds, which is quite impressive! 🫴🌉The most famous landmark here is the Golden Bridge, with two giant hands holding up a golden bridge. It takes tourists more than ten minutes to walk across the bridge. Since Ba Na Hills often gets foggy, walking on the foggy Golden Bridge adds to its ethereal and mysterious charm. 🤩You can't finish exploring Ba Na Hills in one day. That day, I walked over 13,000 steps, and it felt like just a quick tour. Moreover, this magical world has many projects under construction, and it will definitely be bigger and more exciting in the future. 💵Finally, let's talk about the costs: - Mercure Danang French Village Bana Hills hotel, prices range from 600 to over 1000 depending on the season, - The round-trip cable car ticket is 630k VND per person, about 200 RMB, - The restaurant at the Mercure hotel offers a buffet dinner, ranging from RMB 120-250 per person, with good taste. - A private car from Da Nang city to Ba Na Hills costs about 300k VND one way, 600k VND round trip. 🏛️According to the exhibition pictures at the hotel, Ba Na Hills has been developed for over 100 years. When Vietnam was a French colony, Westerners began building structures on the mountain top. Ba Na Hills, as a beautiful cloud-top amusement park, is truly worth visiting❤️👍

#100 Ways to Travel 💞Recommendation reason: On the Son Tra Peninsula in Da Nang, a huge statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva overlooks the star-rated hotels on the beach on the opposite bank and the magnificent scenery formed by the mountains behind. History of Lingying Temple: can be traced back to the 18th century. According to legend, in 1843, a nun named Thích Thiên Tôn discovered a statue of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva here and decided to build a small temple here. In 1934, another monk, Thích Không Lo, expanded the temple. During the Vietnam War, the temple suffered severe damage. In the 1970s, the temple began a large-scale reconstruction and expansion project. In 2004, the temple added the famous 67-meter-tall statue of Guanyin (sometimes called Lady Buddha), which has become one of Danang's landmarks. In 2010, the temple underwent further expansion and renovation, making it the magnificent complex we see today. Linh Ung Pagoda not only witnessed the historical changes of Vietnam, but also reflected the development of Buddhism in Vietnam. According to local people, since the Buddha statue was built, the common floods and diseases in the area have decreased a lot, and the land has become more fertile. They believe that this is due to the blessing of Guanyin Bodhisattva. 🗓️Itinerary: It is recommended to go there in the early morning or evening to avoid the high temperature at noon, and you can also enjoy the beautiful sunrise and sunset. It takes about 30 minutes by taxi or motorbike from the center of Da Nang. You can also take part in local day trips. About 2-3 hours is enough. #Da Nang #Linh Ung Temple #Lady Buddha

#VietnamTravel I came back to visit Da Nang, a resort city in Vietnam. I really love this city. It is easy to travel and safe. It is suitable for traveling alone or in groups. This time, I would like to recommend a tourist attraction that can be called the center of the minds of the people of Da Nang, which is Linh Ung Pagoda, which is home to a large statue of Guanyin that can be clearly seen from Da Nang Bay. Linh Ung Pagoda is located on Son Tra Island, north of Da Nang. It is the largest temple in Da Nang. The white cement statue of Guanyin stands with its back to the mountain, facing the sea to protect the fishermen who go fishing. The sound of the temple bells that harmonize with the sound of the waves helps the sailors feel calm and boost their morale. The Guanyin statue at Linh Ung Pagoda is famous for praying for health, business, safety, and for those who want to have children, they can also come to pray for children. Those who are starting a family should come to pay their respects for great fortune. There is also a viewpoint of Da Nang Bay. I would recommend visiting here.

Introduction place: Linh Ung Pagoda Danang Place description: Hello, the place I will introduce to you today is Linh Ung Pagoda, one of the hot tourist spots in Danang. It is often called ‘Linh Ung Pagoda’ by Koreans rather than Linh Ung Pagoda. Da Nang was a vassal state of China and was under its rule for 1,000 years, so it was greatly influenced by Chinese characters. (Hon)ryeong (respond)eung The most famous thing about Linh Ung Pagoda, which means the soul responds, is the largest Buddha statue that is 67m high. This Buddha statue was actually built to commemorate those who cooperated with the United States during the absorption and unification of Vietnam or those who had democratic ideologies and died while drifting in the sea while escaping from communism. Also, before this Buddha statue was built, it is said that Vietnam was frequently hit by large typhoons. This typhoon was indeed the largest ever, but considering its size, it seems to be very powerful since it safely passed through the typhoon. First, I looked at the Buddha statue and saw the Buddha statue looking at me. The coastal scenery is also great. After seeing all of this, there is an 8-story stone pagoda. This is another great photo spot, so I hope you take a lot of pretty pictures~ How to get there: There are only two ways to get here. ㅠㅠ You have to use a grab or rent a motorcycle. In the case of motorcycle rentals, bikes that don't use gears are restricted from entering. Scooters are not allowed. ㅠㅠ They are controlling it due to frequent accidents, so for safety, I recommend a grab. It costs about 120,000 VND to move around Da Nang City.

I love traveling alone, especially when it takes me to exotic places so I can truly observe the local culture and make local friends. I enjoyed visiting Linh Ung Pagoda as a solo traveler because of its zen gardens and the peaceful feeling it offers. Linh Ung Pagoda is visible for miles and miles away since it was placed at a strategic location on Son Tra Peninsula. You can see Linh Ung Pagoda from as far as 40km away, because I can assure you I could see it clearly from An Bang Beach as well. Linh Ung Pagoda is quite new because it was built just 12 years ago. I took a taxi to Linh Ung Pagoda since taxi is the best way to get around Danang. Taxi ride cost me just about 100.000VND and the driver offered to wait for me to take me back to the city. When I arrived at the Linh Ung Pagoda, I walked around bonsai trees and its multiple temples taking in the peacefulness and spending some time on my own. Linh Ung Pagoda offers a spectacular view of Danang and the coastline for miles ahead. I visited Linh Ung Pagoda during great weather so I could even see the mountains that lay behind Danang City. It is extremely nice to just sit down and relax with such spectacular view with the cooling breeze from the sea. The sculptures and temples are built by a genius architecture because it’s just so beautiful and so perfect, a real masterpiece. Enjoy the feeling of zen while visiting Linh Ung Pagoda 😊 #solotravel #vietnam #danang #summervacation

The Linh Ung Pagoda is one of the most famous attractions in Danang, a coastal city in Vietnam. While passing through this area on a 2 week journey travelling north to south Vietnam, this was definitely a highlight of our visit. Just walking up the steps to the main complex area, you'll find intricate marble carvings of dragons that pave the way in the direction you want to be heading - and these alone are stunning to look at. But on a hill on the Son Tra Peninsula, where the area is located, you will also find one of the tallest statues of the Goddess of Mercy - a huge statue, 67 meters tall, made of blinding white material. Find it: Linh Ung Pagoda, Danang, Vietnam #momentsmission

I went to Da Nang without any expectations, but it was one of the places I liked because there was a lot to see! Yeongheungsan Mountain is quite far from the city, so you have to take a Grab to get there. Usually, when you get off, the driver promises to return by a certain time! So it's good to take your time looking around until then. It was fun to look around because it was well-decorated like a garden. I highly recommend it! 📍 Yeongheungsa Temple (Ling Eom Temple) When you enter the building inside, you should not see the inside. Please note! #Da Nang Travel #Overseas Travel Recommendations #Yeongheungsa Temple #Ling Eom Temple
