Hang Pagoda (Phuoc Dien Tu) – An ancient Buddhist space nestled on the slopes of Sam Mountain, featuring a legendary stone cave. Hang Pagoda is located on the slopes of Sam Mountain, in Vinh Te Ward, An Giang Province. Behind the main hall lies a natural stone cave associated with the legend of the Green and White Snakes. The pagoda is part of the Sam Mountain landscape complex and has been recognized as a National Historical and Cultural Relic. The legend of Nun Dieu Thien and the Green and White Snakes is a significant layer of folklore tied to the pagoda's identity. Visually, Hang Pagoda stands out due to its mid-mountain location, the staircase leading up to the temple, red-tiled roofs, red-painted wooden pillars, intricate carvings, and various statues. The main hall houses the Triple Gem altar, with a layout that creates a reflective effect of the Buddha images from multiple angles. Behind the main hall is the stone cave containing Buddha statues and figures of the two snakes from local folklore. The entire space creates a contrast between man-made architecture and the natural rocky mountain terrain. Suitable as a backdrop for Southern Vietnamese socio-cultural films, historical dramas, spiritual-themed psychological films, documentaries on Buddhism and folklore, or scenes involving pilgrimages, contemplation, and the search for inner peace.
