The History of Long Khanh Pagoda
Long Khanh Pagoda
The pagoda was built to serve the Chinese community, hence its architecture resembles the shape of the letter '口'. Initially, the pagoda's architecture was divided into two areas: the Upper Temple and the Rear Temple, along with two rows of East rooms and West rooms for monks and devotees to rest.
