Huong Tich Pagoda - An ancient sanctuary amidst the Huong Mountains Huong Tich Pagoda is located in Thanh Phu village, Hoa My commune, Dak Lak province. The structure is nestled within the Tam Huong scenic complex, comprising Huong Mountain, Huong Pagoda, and Huong Lake (Bau Huong), creating a harmonious setting that blends religious architecture, mountain forests, and water surfaces. Founded in 1937 by Most Venerable Thich Van An and belonging to the Mahayana Buddhist sect, the pagoda's layout integrates naturally with the terrain of Huong Mountain and the landscape of Huong Lake. This creates a multi-layered background featuring architecture, the temple courtyard, mountain slopes, and lush greenery. This location is ideal for documentaries, cultural and religious films, psychological dramas, television series, and productions exploring rural community life.
