Vinh Nghiem Pagoda, Buddhist temple in District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The pagoda spans 6,000 square meters divided into three sections: the Shanman gate with three archways, the Grand Hall, and multiple towers.

The construction of Vinh Nghiem Pagoda began in 1964 under the guidance of Superior Monks Thich Tam Giac and Thich Thanh Kiem, reaching completion in 1971.

The Grand Hall contains representations of Buddha with two Bodhisattvas on each side, following Mahayana Buddhist traditions rather than Theravada practices.

The temple opens daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM with free entrance, located 20 minutes from Ben Thanh market by various transportation methods.

The seven-story Kuan Yin stupa features distinctive architectural elements including carved wood columns, frescoes, and astronomical symbolic decorations.
