Thanks to the development of the Ba Den Mountain tourist area in Tay Ninh, the cable car station in this area has become one of the attractive tourist destinations for visitors to Tay Ninh. In addition, the Ba Den Mountain cable car station is also impressively built, making it impossible for tourists to overlook when traveling here.
1. Introduction to the Ba Den Mountain cable car station
Now, let's explore what makes the Ba Den Mountain cable car station special and appealing to tourists!
1.1 Basic Information about the Ba Den Mountain Cable Car Station
The Ba Den Mountain cable car route is constructed to transport tourists from the foot to the summit of the mountain for sightseeing and worshiping. Due to the altitude difference and the desire for easier transportation, the Ba Den Mountain cable car is an ideal choice for millions of tourists who visit here annually.
The modern cable car system at Ba Den Mountain helps tourists save time and enjoy the panoramic view of the Ba Den area.
The current system of Ba Den Mountain cable car stations consists of 3 stations: Ba Den Station, Chua Hang Station, and Van Son Station. Among them, Ba Den Station is the common station for both cable routes. The Van Son cable car takes tourists to the summit of Ba Den Mountain, while the Chua Hang cable car transports visitors to the Chua Ba complex located halfway up the mountain.
Tourists can enjoy the mountain scenery while riding the cable car.
Specifically, the Van Son cable car line has 113 cabins with a total capacity of nearly 4,400 passengers per hour. Thanks to this, tourists can travel from the foot to the summit of the mountain in just 8 minutes instead of 4 hours by road.
Meanwhile, the Chua Hang cable car line has 78 cabins, each cabin accommodating 10 people. It can meet the demand for transporting a large number of tourists to the temple on Ba Den Mountain during peak times, especially during festivals when tourists flock to Ba Den Mountain to visit temples and pray for peace.
1.2 Architecture of the Ba Den Mountain Cable Car Station
The architecture of the Ba Den Mountain cable car stations has contributed to creating uniqueness and distinction for this place. This has impressed many tourists.
1.2.1 Ba Den Station
With a fairly large area of about 10,959 m2 and impressive unique architecture, since its inauguration, Ba Den Station welcomes thousands of visitors every day. Furthermore, Ba Den Station has been recognized by the Guinness World Records as the largest station in the world.
Not only impressing with its size, but Ba Den Station also has architecture designed with profound meanings. Firstly, from the outside, tourists will see that Ba Den Station has 3 wave peaks. These 3 peaks symbolize the 3 mountains of the Ba Den mountain range, including Ba Den Mountain, Heo Mountain, and Phung Mountain.
The Ba Den Station features a unique and meaningful design.
Moreover, the interior design further showcases the investment of this cable car system. The main hall of Ba Den Station has 5 large stylized pillars. Symbolizing the 5 ancient pillars sheltered by the Mother Mountain. Some opinions suggest that these 5 pillars resemble the 5 heavy bundles of rice during the bumper harvest season in Tay Ninh.
The design of the roof of Ba Den Station is also quite special, allowing visitors to admire the summit of Ba Den Mountain immersed in the clouds even while inside the station. If visitors come to the station in the evening, they will be able to admire the magical brilliance when the lights among the foliage and tree trunks are illuminated.
1.2.2 Van Son Station
Alongside the world's largest cable car station, the Ba Den Mountain area also features the Van Son Station perched atop the majestic Ba Den Mountain. This station serves tourists traveling on the Van Son cable car route from the foothills to conquer the summit - the 'roof of the Southeast region'.
Boasting a classic European architectural style, this is a famous check-in spot for young people whenever they visit the Ba Den Mountain cable car station.
The Van Son Station is also a favorite spot for young people due to its remarkable interior architecture.
The interior of the Van Son Station is incredibly impressive with polygonal windows in various eye-catching color tones. Additionally, the station is adorned with sandstone floors and peculiarly shaped support columns. All these elements make visitors feel like they are in the works of the world-renowned architect 'Gaudi'.
The interior decor of the station further impresses visitors with wall paintings inspired by the Holy See of Tay Ninh. Travelers to Tay Ninh should visit the Ba Den Mountain cable car station at Van Son to capture some 'insta-worthy' photos.
1.2.3 Chua Hang Station
While Van Son Station transports visitors to a classic European structure, Chua Hang Station immerses them in the architecture of a majestic temple. The design of Chua Hang Station draws inspiration from a 5-story pagoda. The exterior architecture of the station stands out with two meticulously carved dragon-shaped gables in dominant yellow.
Chua Hang Station features a design deeply rooted in temple and Buddhist styles.
This helps visitors easily associate with the colors of Buddhism and harmonizes the station with the temple complex here. The most impressive feature of this station for travelers is perhaps the image of the statue of Buddha Shakyamuni carved on both sides of the walls on the 5th floor. The Ba Den Mountain cable car station at Chua Hang is one of the rare stations designed like a temple.
