Hoi Khanh Temple, Buddhist temple in Thu Dau Mot, Vietnam.

The temple complex spans 700 square meters and features triple entrance gates decorated with dragons and phoenixes amid a wooded park setting.

Founded in 1741, the temple was destroyed during French colonization in 1861 and rebuilt 100 meters south of its original hilltop location.

The main hall displays gilded wooden statues of Buddha Gautama and bodhisattvas created by local artisans during the late nineteenth century.

The temple stands 150 meters from Yersin Street in Phu Cuong ward, surrounded by century-old eucalyptus trees providing natural shade.

Between 1923 and 1926, the temple served as a meeting point for independence activists, including Nguyen Sinh Sac, father of Ho Chi Minh.
