Hi everybody. The spiritual life of Vietnamese people from ancient times has been very varied and complex. My post will write about the spiritual element expressed through the beliefs and sacredness of Ba Den Mountain in Western Province.
Ba Den Mountain is a beautiful high mountain located in the middle of the Southern Delta, 11 km northeast of Tay Ninh Town. Ba Den Mountain is a unique gift that nature has bestowed on humans. Ba Tay Ninh Mountain today is one of the most famous tourists in the country. Ba Den Mountain has such a strange human attraction. In addition to the natural beauty with majestic mountains, Nui Ba also contains many myths and legends.
Ba Den mountain landscape complex is about 24km² wide, including three mountains: Heo Mountain, Phung Mountain, and Ba Den Mountain, with an altitude of 986m. Looking at a distance, Ba Den Mountain looks like a conical hat on the plain. Throughout its historical periods, from the foot to the top of Ba Den Mountain, an architectural complex has been built fully covering electricity, pagodas, shrines, and towers, reflecting the characteristics of Buddhist culture and folk beliefs. Ba Den Mountain has many rich plant and animal species, including snails, bats, lizards, cheetahs, mussels, deer, and valuable vegetables and fruits.
Dien Ba lies at an altitude of 350m, including Thuong Pagoda (Thuong Pagoda) and Hang Pagoda. Ba Temple is the place to worship Ba Den, also known as Linh Son Thanh Mau. Legends such as the History of Nang Dinh, Ly Thi Thien Huong story... are passed down by people.Dien Ba is a cave renovated from a protruding natural stone roof. Dien Ba has a door 6m wide, and a dome 2.5m high. The two sides use bricks close to the cliff in the middle of the power, there is a supporting brick column. The front of the roof is extra to form an 8 m-long electric house. That is a place for Buddhists to worship and worship. In the cave, there are worshiping fairies and worshiping Ba (the statue of Ba).
Every day of the year, pilgrims to the mountain to pay respects to Buddha and visit her. Good men and women from all over the world often come here in January every year to ask for fortune. With its important role and significance, we need to be aware of the importance of protecting, preserving, and promoting scenic spots to friends everywhere to contributing our homeland richer and more beautiful.
