Linh Son Co Tu (Linh Son Ancient Pagoda)
About
Established in the late 19th century, Linh Son Co Tu is the oldest surviving Buddhist temple in Vung Tau. While modest in size, it offers a deeply peaceful and sacred atmosphere beneath mature shade trees, showcasing traditional Southern Vietnamese architectural motifs. The pagoda is celebrated for preserving a rare gilded sandstone Buddha statue dating back to the 7th-century Champa Kingdom era, standing as an invaluable spiritual relic.
