Why Linh Ung Pagoda is special ?
Considered as the largest pagoda by its scale and artistic architecture in Danang city, Linh Ung pagoda with the highest statue of Lady Buddha ( actually Lady Bodhisattva) in Vietnam created a wonderful place where visitors can free their mind by enjoying boundless ocean, beautiful and lively coastal road.
Linh Ung – Bai But pagoda features perfect harmony between the modern and traditional architectures of Vietnamese pagodas, especially in the three-entrance gate, the main chamber and the ancestors’ house.
The local people here believed that the statue of Lady Buddha or Goddess of Mercy not only protect the fisherman but also offering them strength for facing storms and strong waves.
What to explore at Linh Ung Pagoda?
On the way to see Linh Ung pagoda, you will pass a giant 3-door gate, then you will surprise how spectacular it is.
Just behind the entrance gate, there is a lovely courtyard with different kind of bonsai trees and 18 statues of aghast showing their expression. It is such a good place for your photos
If you want to see more about Buddhism, you can go into the main building of this pagoda, discover many statues of different Buddha, Bodhisattva and Arhats and a set of sculptural relief describing about the life of Shakyamuni
By walking to the statue, you may get stunned by the 67m high spectacular statue. Enjoy the view of the ocean, and the coastal stripe of Danang are the wonderful things that you can do here.
Just near the statue, there are steps down to a balcony where you can completely see the wonderful view.
It is more delightful if you can go to this place at night, from 6-8 pm when you can see the endless light stripe from Danang to Hoian and many fishing boats catching seafood.

A Big Pagoda located on moutain,from here u can set a panorama view to the beach.Awesome view.U feel peaceful in this place
It is nice place for you to visit. It is not far from the center of Da Nang City. From the Lady Pagoda you can see whole Da Nang City and take nice picture.
It is the place you can see whole Da Nang. The time you should come there is about 5 pm. To take a photo and take rest there!
Linh Ung Pagoda gives me a pleasant and peaceful welcome to a rainy summer afternoon, after to Danang City for my first-ever visit. But to me, this pagoda has something special and worthy of my visit. And i completed the process of burning incense, praying under the three big Buddha statues and donating money to the pagoda. And this pagoda has 18 statues of Arhat with all of the expressions of joy, anger, love and hate as they are great pieces carved meticulously by skillful artisans.
