Mentioning Tây Ninh tourism inevitably brings up visits to Núi Bà Đen. Núi Bà Đen is renowned as the tallest mountain in the Southeast region, closely associated with the sacred Bà Đen pagoda. Every year, a large number of people come here for pilgrimage and worship. Especially around April, Núi Bà Đen becomes even more vibrant with its lively festival.
Linh Sơn Holy Mother
On Núi Bà Đen, there are numerous fairies, saints, Buddhas, temples, and spectacular landscapes. Among them, the primary deity is Bà Đen, honored as the Linh Sơn Holy Mother.
Once upon a time, there lived a young woman named Denh (later mispronounced as Den), who devoutly followed the teachings of Buddhism. She was the daughter of a high-ranking official in Mien. Refusing to marry the local official in Trang Bang, Denh fled her home and sought enlightenment in the mountains, where she ultimately passed away. Later, the Nguyen dynasty commissioned a black bronze statue and bestowed upon her the title of 'Linh Son Holy Mother.'

Join the festivities at the Ba Den Mountain Festival.
When does the festival usually take place?
Every year, there are two renowned festivals held at Ba Den Mountain: the Spring Festival takes place from the evening of the 18th to the 19th day of the Lunar New Year, and the Via Ba Festival is organized from the 4th to the 6th day of the 5th Lunar month.
Among them, the Via Ba Festival is considered the main event of the year. People often say, 'Visiting the temple throughout the year is not as significant as on the full moon of the first Lunar month,' hence, during the festive seasons, especially during Tet and the arrival of spring, Ba Den Mountain becomes livelier than ever.
2. How is the Via Ba Festival organized?
While the festivities in the first Lunar month are busier and more vibrant, the Via Ba Festival in the 5th Lunar month is the official main event. Therefore, the Via Ba Festival entails more rituals and ceremonies.
The mountain festival at Ba Den exhibits a blend of solemn Buddhist rituals and the lively spirit of folk beliefs, conveying the collective aspirations for a prosperous and joyful life. It vividly portrays the distinct cultural essence of the Southern folk heritage.
