In Nirvana With Buddha


The biggest statue of great Buddha in Vietnam shows him in nirvana. The monument length is 49 metres as a symbol of 49 stages on the way to self-knowledge, its height of 11 metres symbolizes 11 buddhism levels. This statue was being constructed from 1962 till 1965 with belivers' help, on their means. On the way to Buddha travellers can visit a temple, monks' dwellings, several other statues and sacred graves of great Buddhists.
However it is not the end of our way to Buddha. Before reaching him you will go by several stairs, temples, graves and chewing and playing cards with Vietnameses.
