The Linh Ung pagoda on Son Tra peninsula is
possibly the most famous as it hosts the highest
Guanyin Statue in Vietnam, a giant white statue,
considered as a symbol of Da Nang city. One
special thing of the Lady Buddha Da Nang is
whether you are standing in any place in the
city, you can easily see the white statue which
leans on the mountain, overlooking the Pacific
Ocean

Legends had it that in the period of King Minh
Mang, the fishermen in Bai But found a Buddhist
statue floating on the sea. They believed it was
a favorable omen, so they built a worshipping
shrine there. That was also where Linh Ung pagoda
was constructed later on

The name Lady Buddha is a bit deceiving. The
statue in fact depicts Guanyin, the Buddhist
Goddess of Mercy who can be found in coastal
areas throughout Asia, as she is believed to
bring calm to the sea. The giant statue stands in
front of the beautiful Linh Ung Pagoda, with its
gardens and small souvenir shop operated by
monks. The Quan Yin status with the height of
67m, approximately to 30 floor building and 35 m
in diameter lotus is considered as the highest
Buddha statue in Vietnam. On top of Guayins hat,
there is a 2m-high statue of Buddha. There are 17
floors in the statue lap, each representing a
different aspect of the Buddha

Most Buddhist temples include statues of the
arhats. Although many hundreds may sometimes be
represented, a set of eighteen can be found
almost always
29
18 stone Arhat statues are one of the most
distinctive features of Ling Ung pagoda which
were carved up by artist Nguyen Viet Minh (The
head of Non Nuoc craft village) with monolithic
white stone materials brought from Thanh Hoa
30
Technically, an arhat is a Buddhist adept who has
attained a state where reincarnation will no
longer be necessary, and nirvana lies just ahead
31
All disciples of the Buddha are assumed to have
become arhats
32
In popular thought, arhats often have
supernatural powers
