One weekend, we had the opportunity to return to the top of Sap mountain for a tour and felt the peace here. The sound of the temple bells from the high mountain echoed in the Zen realm, making visitors feel like they were lost in a quiet, empty place. In the rainy season, Sap mountain is covered in a deep green color. Standing from Thanh An pagoda, looking at Truc Lam Zen Monastery, located next to a calm lake with Buddhist architecture, with tiled tones, it looks very ancient. In the past, Ong Thoai lake used to be a place to quarry stones for building materials throughout the area. The quarried stone source gradually deepened, and later people discharged water into it, creating a large lake. Today, the surrounding area of Ong Thoai lake has been renovated, with pagodas and temples, which are famous spiritual tourist destinations, attracting many visitors to visit and worship.
From the high mountain, visitors will see Truc Lam Zen Monastery on the shore of the large Ong Thoai Lake, located in a very beautiful location.
Ong Thoai Lake is home to many colorful species of carp and Koi fish.
In the Sap mountain complex, there is also Ong Thoai 1 lake, about 100,000m2 wide. In Ong Thoai lake, there are still a few remaining stone oases, connected by Mai An Tiem bridge, Khoa Bang bridge, Vong Nguyet bridge, adding to the natural beauty of this tourist area. In the south of the lake, there is a model of One Pillar Pagoda, with ancient and quiet architecture, which is an attractive destination for visitors from near and far.
Seen from above, Ong Thoai Lake looks like a painting, with many shades of red and green, and winding roads.
Thanh An Pagoda is located on Sap Mountain, next to the steep cliff beside Ong Thoai Lake.
