Great Divine Temple, Religious temple in Tây Ninh, Vietnam

The Great Divine Temple is a major religious sanctuary in Tây Ninh with two prominent towers rising above the main structure and multiple spiritual levels distributed throughout the complex. An octagonal central hall serves as the focal point where sacred ceremonies take place.

The temple was built starting in 1931 and completed by 1947, growing into a major religious center for the Cao Dai faith. It became an important gathering place and has remained so for followers of this spiritual tradition.

The temple brings together teachings from Buddhism, Christianity, Taoism, and Confucianism within a single structure and spiritual framework. Visitors can observe how these different traditions coexist in the daily ceremonies and ritual practices held throughout the day.

The sanctuary can be reached by road and features multiple entrance gates that make it easy to navigate the grounds. Regular ceremonies are held throughout the week, and visitors can often observe or participate in spiritual gatherings.

At the heart of this sanctuary lies a cosmic sphere known as the Qian-Kun ball, which represents the universe within the spiritual beliefs of followers. This object is found nowhere else and marks the spiritual centerpoint of the entire complex.
