Long Son Pagoda

This is one of those places that feels like stepping into a serene postcard. You’ve got the giant white Buddha sitting at the top like some kind of Zen superhero, watching over the city & it’s absolutely worth the 150-step climb to check it out.

The pagoda itself is a blend of peaceful vibes & stunning architecture. The intricate carvings and statues are a testament to Vietnamese artistry. And when you finally make it to the top? The view of Nha Trang sprawled out below is the kind of thing that makes you forget about all those calories you just burned on the way up.

But don’t just rush to the Buddha and call it a day. Take your time to explore the pagoda grounds. The bonsai trees, the ornate altars, the incense-filled air—it’s all part of the experience. Plus, you’ll probably run into some monks who are way calmer and cooler than you could ever hope to be.

Just remember, dress modestly—no one wants to be that tourist in a sacred space. And if you’re feeling generous, drop a donation in one of the boxes. It’s a small way to say thanks for the peace and beauty this place gives you.

Whether you’re here for spiritual reasons or just looking to soak in some culture, this pagoda is a must-see. Just don’t be surprised if you leave feeling a little more Zen than when you arrived.
