Van Son Pagoda

So beautiful! I was lucky enough to visit the pagoda during Tet 2024. There is a steep set of steps to the top so take your time and be careful and respectful of other visitors. Buildings are beautiful and well taken care of. The view of the bay is surroundings beautiful from the top. The pagoda complex well maintained and perfect for photographers.

I visited this mountain temple with my family at the beginning of 2022 and was impressed by its beauty. The path leading up to the temple is not too steep and my mother, who is almost 70 years old, was able to walk up at a slow pace. The fresh air and cool breeze up high made the experience very pleasant. The temple even provided free cold water and they were delicious.

From the temple grounds, you can see the sea and there are stone benches to sit and rest on. There are many monkeys that come out begging for food, even trying to steal it if you're not careful. But they are cute and if you plan to visit the temple, it's a good idea to bring some fruits and rice cakes for the monkey families.

This is my favorite place when I visit Condao island.
The pagoda offers a great view over the southern part of the island. The view alone is worth a short trip.
You could receive a meaningful message as a small gift from pagoda.

Tranquil place! Can get wide-range view from here

A good 25mins walk from center of town, then the steps up to the Pagoda. Being a hot morning I took a taxi there and motorbike taxi back, saving my self for the steps..which actually weren't too bad, it is humid under the trees though. Lovely views from the top albeit slightly obscured by the trees, but that's what trees do..they grow. ☺ Plenty of seating and a beautiful breeze to relax by.

Located in the mountain with spectacular view from the top. It’s a beautiful place with peace and warm environment. They have free drink and desserts in the back provided by the monks and volunteers at the temple

Beautiful and peaceful pagoda at the top of the mountain. It’s a bit exhausting to get to the top during the hot weather, but the view from the top is amazing.
The pagoda is very beautiful and everything looks very clean.

Definitely worth a stop! Extremely beautiful architecture and wonderful visitors. Monkies galore!

You must go here if you travel to Con Dao island. The pagoda is on the top of a moutain. The landscape from here is huge and beautiful. The enviroment is very wild. Many Capitalism leaders in Vietnam had been staying here. Lol :))

Peaceful and wonderful view. Mischievous monkeys that steal people’s tributes to Buddha.

Beautiful serene environment with the most beautiful chimes I've ever heard... Well worth climbing the steps!

Wonderful. Beautiful scene and they offer free tea!

It's pagoda on the mountain. Very nice view.

A nice and quiet buda pagoda in a nice island

Great view. A short climb up. Free mung bean with coconut milk chè and hot chè vối and cold basil seed with aloe vera drink. Need to clean the bowls and cups yourself after finishing. Free wooden lucky bracelet behind the main hall.

One of the religious sites in Con Dao. Nice view over the sea.

Spiritual destination where bring the love and prosperous country for islands farmers.

If you want a place that you can look around the island, this is that one. The way to this place go around a big lotus place where you will definitely have amazing shoots. The Pagoda which has a unique architecture is located on the top of the mountain. When you visit this place, you can see a lot of monkeys playing around. Do not feed the monkeys or you will have a trouble with them.

Have a great view to tower
