- jdeepak84Rudrapur, India156 contributionsLinh Ung Pagoda Da nangBest Place to visit while in Da Nang. Is only about 20 mins drive and is best suited to be visited in the evenings for a couple of hours. Has a Lot of Places to worship and take scenic photosVisited November 2023Travelled with familyWritten 15 November 2023
- BrakiWorldTravelerBelgrade, Serbia19,408 contributionsBeautiful Temple behind Lady BuddhaLady Buddha is certainly the main star of the entire complex, however this gorgeous Temple is situated behind it and overlooked. In front are cute Bonsai trees, while the Temple itself is very richly decorated, both outside and inside. You can enter it (taking off your shoes of course), and walk around and back the main altar where the main Temple is connected with the library and a kitchen.Visited January 2024Travelled with familyWritten 2 February 2024

The pagoda is famous for its beautiful 67-metre Goddess of Mercy stature standing on a lotus-shaped platform.

- LolaGo1Washington DC, District of Columbia6,632 contributionsAlso called the Lady Buddha!I highly recommend visiting this attraction due to its elevated location, overlooking the Danang City areas. There are also several attractions to see here: Temples, Shrines, Statues of Buddhas, flower gardens, etc. Steps are few, very manageable. Free, clean toilet facilities are also here.Visited April 2024Travelled soloWritten 14 April 2024

We spent there more than 1 hour, there are a lot of interesting monuments, statues, there are monkeys, vendors, etc. If you are in DaNang, worth to see it.Visited August 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 20 August 2024

This is a must do in Da Nang. We visited the day we arrived since its only a 15min drive from the city of Da Nanag and I must say this really gave a total high to my trip to Da Nang. I loved every second of Linh ung Pagoda. I even made a video on how much i loved this site and DaNang (in case you want to watch it, my channel is Therapist Nomad) . Make sure you come here with at least 2 free hours to enjoy and really immerse in this place. Also, it is said that if you pray your wishes in the pagoda they will come true!

visiting the pagoda is as walking into a small world within a world. the location of the pagoda is great as it is standing at the foothill of the mountain, overlooking the town. walking the pagoda's ground is also pleasant, clean and SOMETIMES, very quite!

What an incredible place, an absolute MUST visit if you’re in Da Nang/ Hoi An. Free entry for all temples/statue. Remember to dress/bring modest clothing to go into the temples (shoulders and knees covered) to show respect. Only 15/20 min from Da nang and cheap transport with grab there, most drivers will even wait for you there for a ride back. It’s polite/good to take a few small notes to tip the temples (only 1-5k) we enjoyed this so much!

We visited on the very first day of summer in March, so it was quite hot. The views of the ocean from the hilltop where the pagoda is located are incredible. This is also where you can find the tallest Lady Buddha statue in Vietnam. It's recommended to come here by motorbike and explore the Son Tra Peninsula to fully appreciate this area.

Absolutely beautiful, a must see. Takes about an hour to and hour and a half to tour it comfortably. None of the walk was very challenging, mainly flat. It’s free! Great views of Da Nang. Be respectful and be prepared to take shoes off to your pagoda. Cover shoulders.

I don't think there is a walking path. If your walk along the road from the resort at the bottom of Son Tra mountain it is probably about 5 kms. A taxi or motor bike can take you up the mountain.

Hello. I was wondering if this location will still be open on 2/12/16 due to Tet Holidays. Are tourist attractions and museums still open 4 days after the Tet holiday starts?
Written 25 January 2016
Surely Linh Ung Pagoda opens during Tet. And more people will come there for praying.
Other attractions and Museums open too. And hight posibility that thay will be free entrance on Tet holidays:) Enjoy. Enjoy!
