This is said to be the tallest Buddha statue in Vietnam, called "Lady Buddha Da Nang" (Guan Yin statue). It is located at Linh Ung Pagoda on Son Tra Peninsula in Da Nang which is 9 km away from My Khe beach, or 14 km from Da Nang city center. The statue can be easily spotted from the My Khe beach, the impressive all white statue sits inside Linh Ung pagoda courtyard with a height of about 220 feet, equivalent to about a 30-storey building.
Entrance to the temple and Guan Yin statue seems free and the site opens to the public all-day long. Inside the status contains 17 floors up and each floor provides worships from different Buddhas. It is not easy to climb the 17 floors to the top of the statue but worthwhile to get an impressive view from above.
Besides the Lady Buddha, there are more to see at this temple. The grounds display an impressive collection of relatively life-sized statues, very impressive giant Bonzai creations, lots of greens and of course a quiet mountainside view of the bustling city of Da Nang below.
The "Lady Buddha" is definitely a must visit while in Da Nang.
Rating: 7.5 / 10 👍👍😋😋😋
