Admire a huge 24 m (79 ft) tall statue of White Gautama Buddha--the largest outdoor scultpure in Vietnam--at Long Son Pagoda, the largest pagoda in the country. Intricate dragon mosaics made of glass and ceramic tiles decorate the entrance to the temple, with the large statue of the reclining Buddha resting in the temple’s well-manicured garden. Climb 152 steps to the top of the mountain to enjoy the big Buddha arising from lush greenery from a distance, as well as gaining panoramic views over the city.

  • Beautiful and awesome. This is outdoors. It was raining when I visited. The steps and walkways can be slick.

  • Nice place for a visit, includes a template and two large Buddha statues that require you to go 170 steps up. A short visit would be enough. Unfortunately the place is not maintained and has lots of garbage around it. The entrance was free, but a local lady decided to give us an explanation and a 5 minute "tour" in the place, after which she tried to sell us photograph cards for 200k :(
  • The White Buddhist Pagoda as called by the locals is a beautiful place worth a visit in Nha Trang for worshipers and tourists. The lying Buddha Statue is on the right side of the main temple. The huge White Buddha Statue sits on a hill, offering a bird's eye view of Nha Trang City. Tourists shouldn't wear shorts or tank tops as it's a religious place.
