Where to Visit in Tay Ninh Travel Guide
Toa Thanh Temple
This 65-year-old temple took more than 20 years to complete and has stood vividly since in the holy land of Tay Ninh. Toa Thanh Temple is believed to have heavenly and astonishing architecture representing its blended practices and preachings from Taoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Christianity, and Islam. They all together form the Cadaoism.
There are 12 gates along the barrier of Toa Thanh Temple, which connect with wide roads to create an open campus of up to 2.5 kilometers square for everyone to freely move in and out. In addition, 100 architectural works around the campus undoubtedly make the Cao Dai Holy See become one of the largest temples in Vietnam.
The dominant color of the entire temple is sacred yellow carved with colorful details like dragons, phoenixes, lotus, and especially the single eye. The main building creates an astonishing ambiance, resembling the nine levels of the sky and a majestic heaven painting. A series of massive pillars with intricate engravings of dragons. At the end of the building stands a blue globe and a single eye carved on it. It symbolizes the Divine Eye of the Supreme Being among the transcending universe that always looks out for humans.
