Khanh Son Pagoda

About this location

Khanh Son Pagoda - A Buddhist sanctuary nestled on the southern slope of Chop Chai Mountain. Khanh Son Pagoda is located in Thanh Duc Quarter, Binh Kien Ward, Dak Lak Province, on the southern side of Chop Chai Mountain. Its position, backed by the mountain and facing the open plains, creates a landscape with significant openness and depth. The approach via stone steps, the temple gate, courtyards, greenery, and worship structures provides multi-layered visuals, suitable for wide shots, medium shots, and angled shots along the slope. Founded in 1802, the pagoda is one of the oldest in the historic Phu Yen region. During the resistance wars against the French and Americans, it served as a meeting point and training site for cadres, linked to numerous revolutionary activities. This historical significance, combined with the Buddhist atmosphere, gives the location a sense of both solemnity and historical depth. This setting is suitable for historical and revolutionary films, cultural films, documentaries, family dramas, and works exploring religious life and community memory.
