Visiting Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery

Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery is located in Thanh Tu village, Dong Que commune, Song Lo district (old), built on the ancient land of Kim Ton pagoda - an ancient pagoda over 700 years old. If Kim Ton used to be a sacred place, a place of spiritual attachment to many generations of residents of this land, now Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery is a continuation, affirming the enduring vitality of Buddhism.

Since 2010, the Zen Monastery has been built at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level, located on Hinh Nhan Mountain, in the Sang Son range.

The entire architecture of the Zen Monastery bears the traditional appearance of Vietnamese pagodas and towers.

In the main hall and the ancestral hall, the scent of incense wafts in the air, blending with the gentle light of candles, creating a quiet, peaceful space.

The statues are seated in a meditative pose, with gentle faces and half-closed eyes, exuding a quiet yet benevolent look.

If the main hall and the ancestral hall create majesty, the water pavilion brings a poetic and romantic look.

Coming to this place, many people have to stop for a long time, quietly watching the peaceful lake surface, as if finding a precious moment of silence in the midst of a busy life.

In the Zen Monastery grounds, the Di Huong Duong area stands out - a special highlight.

This place displays artifacts excavated from the ancient Kim Ton pagoda: old bricks, wooden statues, and time-worn worship objects.

Each artifact is a historical witness, telling the story of an ancient temple that once existed on Sang Mountain.

Along with that are photos and documents about the construction process of Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery, reminding today's generation to respect and continue the legacy of their ancestors.

Nowadays, Zen Monastery is not only a spiritual destination but also a place where people voluntarily adjust their pace of life and find balance in their souls.

On average every year, Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery attracts thousands of tourists from inside and outside the province to come to worship and sightsee.

Every step when leaving brings with it a feeling of serenity and peace - a priceless gift that is not easily found anywhere else.

Therefore, Truc Lam Tue Duc Zen Monastery is not only a continuation of the Buddhist heritage on the ancient land of Kim Ton but also a symbol of the aspiration to preserve and promote the cultural and spiritual values ​​of the nation.
